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.

Wheelchair Access: In Wisconsin, non-ambulatory clients participate in AA meetings through wheelchair access. Facilities may include exterior ramps, designated parking, and open floor spaces for safe navigation.

Women: Wisconsin AA meetings for women are women-exclusive peer support meetings for those who are affected by alcoholism - women who are addicted to alcohol or who have loved ones suffering from alcohol addiction. Welcoming women of all ages to attend at no cost, these meetings offer support and peer fellowship with the guidance of a 12-step recovery program.
