Questions about AA in River Forest

What is listed near River Forest?

93 within 5 miles, which is how far this page had to reach to show you a full week. 2 are in River Forest itself.

Can I find a meeting in River Forest on any day?

Every day. Tuesday is the busiest with 21 meetings, and no day is empty.

Are the AA meetings in River Forest open to anyone?

7 of the 93 listed here are marked open, which means anyone can attend, including family. 63 are marked closed, for people who want to stop drinking.

What is the difference between a group and a meeting?

2 groups listed in River Forest. A group is the set of people who run a meeting, and most run more than one a week.

Is there childcare at any meeting near River Forest?

1 meeting is listed as child friendly or as having babysitting, which is the practical blocker for a lot of people.

Can I bring someone with me to a meeting in River Forest?

Yes, and bringing someone is common enough that nobody will remark on it. Nobody at an open meeting will ask a visitor to explain who they are with or why they came. A larger open meeting is easier to attend as a visitor than a small one.

Is it all right to turn up having had a drink?

Yes. The only usual expectation is that you let other people speak. Groups generally ask only that someone who has been drinking does not disrupt the meeting, and a quiet person at the back never does. You can leave at any point without explaining yourself.
