What is an AA Meeting?

An AA Meeting is a program where alcoholics and people who struggle with drug use gather for one hour to express their experience, strength, and hope. AA Members who attend an Alcoholic’s Anonymous meeting in Atherton, California will share their experience getting sober through their personal anecdotes with anyone seeking help with a drinking problem. There is no religious, social or economic association for membership, just the yearn to achieve sobriety, and live a happy & healthy existence without alcohol.

How to Choose an AA Meeting in Atherton, California

It is important when coming to AA that you pick a meeting that is best for where you are at in sobriety. The 1st type of meeting is a new comers meeting and is not solely for new comers but is a meeting that inspires members to share their stories and reach out for help. The second type of meeting would be a single gender meeting, which is only open to either men or women. A Closed meeting simply means the group is closed to any discussion that does not involve how to stay sober from alcohol. Speaking of any other substance use addictions is not allowed. A Step Study is a gathering that is simply a specific step and discussed in length regarding the best approach to working this step and applying it to your daily life. Traditions meetings are focused around the 12 traditions of AA. The 12 traditions are not the same as the 12 steps. The traditions were established to maintain order throughout AA and maintaining accountability to these traditions is the reason you can join an Alcoholics Anonymous Meeting anywhere in across the globe to hear the same message.
