Can family come to an AA meeting?

Yes, to the open ones, and the table above says which those are. A newcomer bringing someone for moral support is an ordinary sight. It is worth checking with the group if you are unsure which it is.

Which AA meeting should I go to first?

Choose on the practical details rather than on anything you have heard. People often try three or four rooms before one of them fits, and that is the ordinary pattern rather than a bad sign. That approach works across Illinois.
