AA is a free, peer to peer, recovery support organization that has been around since the 1930s but continues to evolve with the times. They build on old traditions and add new ways to help people, such as holding meetings virtually via Zoom, or offering LGBTQI+ friendly meetings or meetings that include holistic approaches like meditation. AA meetings Illinois can provide healing benefits through the help that other people in recovery have to offer, but also through the healing benefits of offering help to others.
