Types of AA Meetings
12 Steps & 12 Traditions: Wisconsin's AA programs, founded on the research-backed 12 steps and traditions, offer a warm and supportive community for individuals seeking recovery. Through regular meetings led by peers and mentors, lasting change is within reach.
Big Book: The Big Book is a collection of stories about real people who overcame alcoholism. AA programs in Wisconsin feature the Big Book in discussion groups to inspire participants.
Closed: In Wisconsin, closed AA meetings are not open to the general public and nonalcoholics cannot attend. The only people who may attend are AA members and individuals who understand they have a drinking problem and want to begin recovery. The discussions are informal and everyone can share.
Digital Basket: AA chapters may have a digital basket, which is a virtual collections plate for members to donate funds to pay for the chapter’s expenses. The virtual basket may accept various online payment services, such as PayPal, Google Pay, Stripe, and Venmo.
