Sunday Morning Speaker Meeting Hilton Head Island

Types of AA Meetings

Breakfast: AA meetings that occur early in the morning may include breakfast. Members should be proactive about inquiring into costs for the meal, potential allergy information, and other cultural food sensitivities they might have.

Non-Smoking: AA groups may be non-smoking, meaning that members are not allowed to use tobacco products or vape during the meeting or on the facility’s grounds. These rules may be set by the group, the venue hosting the meeting, or local ordinances.

Open: Open AA meetings in South Carolina are available to anyone in the community. They are not limited to members only, which gives the public the opportunity to learn more about the organization and its unique 12 step recovery program. Members can share their stories and experiences while non-members can listen and observe.

Speaker: Speakers encourage AA members to maintain sobriety through humor, charm, reason, faith, and emotions. In South Carolina, AA centers often invite speakers to motivate their members.

Wheelchair Access: Non-ambulatory clients in South Carolina may still fully participate in AA meetings. The center may have designated parking spaces and wheelchair access through exterior ramps and open floor spaces.
