Can Anyone go to an A.A. Meeting? What are Open & Closed Meetings?
The purpose of all A.A. group meetings is for A.A. members to share their experience,
strength and hope with each other that they may solve their common problem and help others to recover from alcoholism.
A.A. groups hold both open and closed meetings.
Closed meetings are for those who have a desire to stop drinking.
Open meetings are for anyone interested in the A.A. program of recovery from alcoholism.
At meetings, the A.A. chairperson will ask that participants confine their discussion to recovery from alcoholism.
Whether open or closed, A.A. meetings are led by A.A. members.

indispensable for our future functioning and safety. Primary world service
leadership, once exercised by the founders, must necessarily be assumed by the
trustees.

Preamble of A.A.
Alcoholics Anonymous is a fellowship of men and women who share their experience, strength and hope with each other that they may solve their common problem and help others to recover from alcoholism.
The only requirement for membership is a desire to stop drinking.
There are no dues or fees for AA membership; we are self-supporting through our own contributions.
AA is not allied with any sect, denomination, politics, organization or institution; does not wish to engage in any controversy, neither endorses nor opposes any causes.
Our primary purpose is to stay sober and help other alcoholics to achieve sobriety.
