Questions about AA in East Alton

How many AA meetings are near East Alton?

28 within 10 miles, which is how far this page had to reach to show you a full week. 2 are in East Alton itself.

Can I find a meeting in East Alton on any day?

Not every day. Meetings are listed on 6 days, and Sunday has nothing.

What is the difference between an open and a closed meeting in East Alton?

18 of the 28 listed here are marked open, which means anyone can attend, including family. 9 are marked closed, for people who want to stop drinking.

What is an AA meeting actually like?

The shape is simple enough to describe in a paragraph. The chair opens, there are readings, people share, and it closes on time. The venue and start time for each one are in the schedule above.

How much time does this take?

An hour at most meetings, sometimes ninety minutes. Early on, people often go daily, because the gap between meetings is the hard part rather than the meeting itself. Going to two in a week is a better test than going to one.
