What happens if someone goes to both AA and NA?

A.A. is about drinking and N.A. is about drugs, and the format is close to identical. Both hold open meetings that anyone can attend, including family. The two run on the same format, so neither is a leap if you have been to the other.

Can I go to AA if I am an atheist?

Not a church, not a denomination and not a mission. What members take that to mean varies enormously, people who hold no belief at all attend in numbers, and nobody is asked to profess anything. If the language is the sticking point, try two different rooms before deciding, because they really are not alike.

What does a sponsor actually do?

An arrangement between two members, with nothing written down. Most groups will point a newcomer toward members who are available to sponsor, if you say that is what you are looking for. Nobody will pressure you into the arrangement.
