Types of AA Meetings

Closed: Closed AA meetings in Colorado are restricted to just members or anyone who has a drinking problem and wants to seek help. Discussions are informal. Everyone is encouraged to participate and share about their alcohol addiction and recovery journey.

Discussion: AA discussion meetings in Colorado are based on a central topic related to alcohol addiction and recovery. A member will open the meeting by reading a related passage from a relevant AA text, such as the Big Book or Twelve Steps and Twelve Traditions. Then, other members can share their input on the subject as they feel led.

Virtual: AA groups may opt to hold their meetings virtually. Online sessions can be closed or open and are typically conducted on free platforms such as Zoom.

Women: Colorado women’s AA meetings are community support meetings for women who are impacted by alcohol addiction. Free of charge for all women, these meetings use a 12-step program to help women at all stages of alcoholism recovery, offering a safe and productive space for community support for women of all ages.
