Retired Professional Men’s Meeting

Types of AA Meetings

Big Book: Clients in Arizona may participate in Big Book discussions. The Big Book contains dozens of inspirational stories of past clients who successfully controlled their alcohol use disorder.

Discussion: In Arizona, AA discussion meetings allow one member to share their personal experience, recovery journey, and hope for the future before opening the floor for others to share. They usually begin by referencing a topic from an AA text such as the Big Book, Twelve Steps and Twelve Traditions, AA Grapevine, or others.

Men: In Arizona, men of all ages who are impacted by alcohol use disorder may attend AA meetings designated only for men. Here, no-cost 12 Step Programs are offered that focus on issues relating to men’s recovery.
