Types of AA Meetings

Cross Talk Permitted: Cross talk refers to speech in AA meetings that are directed toward a specific member, rather than the group, and is generally critical. Crosstalk is generally not permitted in AA because it is considered disruptive and can undermine the unity of the group. However, some AA chapters allow cross talk in discussions.

Daily Reflections: Daily Reflections is an AA text that compiles insight, experience, and encouragement from various members. Selected contents may be topics of discussions in AA meetings. Members can also adapt reflections into their daily activities.

Discussion: AA discussion meetings in New Hampshire focus on one specific topic related to alcohol addiction and recovery. These topics normally come from an AA text, such as the Big Book. The leader will share the topic, add their personal insights, and open the floor for members to share reflections.

Transgender: Transgender AA meetings provide safe spaces for transgender individuals and their allies to meet. These groups may discuss issues and challenges related to alcohol use disorder that transgender individuals face.

Women: New Hampshire women’s AA meetings are peer group meetings for women who are affected by alcohol addiction. Free to attend and open to all women in the community, including women who are addicted to alcohol and those who have loved ones with alcoholism, these support meetings use a 12-step program for addiction recovery.
