Types of AA Meetings

Babysitting Available: AA centers might have pre-existing available babysitting services, which they make available for members during meetings. Services vary in terms of cost, ages of children accepted, and amenities for babysitters, members, and children.

Big Book: Georgia AA meetings often center on the Big Book for discussions. The Big Book is a collection of stories from women and men who overcame alcohol use disorder and is used to inspire clients.

Open: In Georgia, anyone in the community can attend open AA meetings. These are available to individuals recovering from alcohol use disorder as well as nonalcoholics who want to learn more about the AA program and how the 12 step recovery model operates. The meetings are informative in nature and may include member input.

Wheelchair Access: In Georgia, AA centers with wheelchair access generally feature ramps and designated parking spots, as needed. The center’s layout allows for safe navigability for clients to participate in the meeting.

Women: Georgia AA meetings for women are women-centered peer support meetings for people who are affected by alcohol addiction. These meetings use a 12-step recovery curriculum and are open to all women free of charge, including women who are addicted to alcohol and women who have loved ones with alcohol addiction.
