Types of AA Meetings

Closed: In Utah, closed AA meetings are restricted to just members of AA and people who realize they have a drinking problem and want to take steps toward recovery. The discussions include topics that are best understood by others who have taken this path before and have insights to share.

Discussion: AA discussion meetings in Utah revolve around a certain topic that relates to alcoholism and recovery. These topics normally come from a designated AA text, such as Twelve Steps and Twelve Traditions. After the leader shares their personal thoughts on the subject, other members can participate in the discussion.

Wheelchair Access: Non-ambulatory clients in Utah may have wheelchair access for their AA meetings. The centers may have designated parking, exterior ramps, and open floor plans for safe navigation throughout the facility.
