The Best Method of Selecting an AA Meeting in Hammond, Illinois

It is important when coming to AA that you select a meeting that is best for where you are at in sobriety. The first type of AA meeting is a new comers meeting and is not limited to only new comers but is a meeting that inspires them to speak their truth and ask for help. The next type of meeting would be a single gender meeting, which is only open to one gender. A Closed meeting simply means the group is closed to any discussion that does not involve how to maintain sobriety from alcohol. Speaking of any other illicit substances is not allowed. A Step Study is a gathering that is simply a specific step and spoken about in length regarding the best approach to working this step and applying it to your daily life. Traditions meetings are focused on 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 holding each group accountable to these traditions is why you can walk into an Alcoholics Anonymous Meeting anywhere in the world to hear the same message.
