Questions about AA in Wilmington

What is listed near Wilmington?

68 within 15 miles, which is how far this page had to reach to show you a full week. 3 are in Wilmington itself.

Can I find a meeting in Wilmington on any day?

Every day. Monday is the busiest with 15 meetings, and no day is empty.

Are the AA meetings in Wilmington open to anyone?

8 of the 68 listed here are marked open, which means anyone can attend, including family. 45 are marked closed, for people who want to stop drinking.

Can I get a court card signed at a meeting in Wilmington?

Generally yes, though asking before the meeting rather than after is wiser. A.A. has no central body that issues or validates any form of attendance record. A larger meeting is more likely to have someone used to handling it.

What do people read at a Big Book meeting?

The fellowship's own text, part explanation and part personal accounts. The twelve steps appear in it, which is why step meetings and Big Book meetings overlap. You do not need to own or have read anything to attend.

What is an AA sponsor?

A member you ask, who can say yes or no like anybody else. There is no fee, no contract and no fixed term to it. A sponsor is another member with no training and no fee, which is the distinction worth holding on to.
