Questions about AA in Wakefield

How many AA meetings are within driving distance of Wakefield?

62 within 5 miles, which is how far this page had to reach to show you a full week. 9 are in Wakefield itself.

Can I find a meeting in Wakefield on any day?

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

Can I go to a meeting in Wakefield if I am not sure I am an alcoholic?

35 of the 62 listed here are marked open, which means anyone can attend, including family. 27 are marked closed, for people who want to stop drinking.

Are there meetings near Wakefield for people in their twenties?

Yes. 5 young people's meetings are listed, which tends to mean a room where you are not the youngest person there.

Can family come to an AA meeting?

Yes, provided the meeting is an open one. Nobody at an open meeting will ask a visitor to explain who they are with or why they came. The labels in the schedule above say which meetings in Wakefield are open.

Can I go to AA if I am an atheist?

No, and the fellowship has spent ninety years arguing about the wording internally. The literature is explicit that it has no opinion on which higher power anyone chooses. That variation holds across Massachusetts as much as in Wakefield.

Is anyone allowed to go to an AA meeting?

There is no test and no entry condition beyond wanting to stop. There is no form, no referral and no minimum period of sobriety behind it, and you are a member at the point you say you are. You can go once and never come back, and nobody will mind.
