Questions about AA in Reading
How many AA meetings are there in Reading?
53 meetings in town, out of 3,455 across Pennsylvania.
Is there an AA meeting every day in Reading?
Every day. Monday is the busiest with 10 meetings, and no day is empty.
What is the difference between an open and a closed meeting in Reading?
41 of the 53 listed here are marked open, which means anyone can attend, including family. 11 are marked closed, for people who want to stop drinking.
How many AA groups are there in Reading?
27 groups listed in Reading. A group is the set of people who run a meeting, and most run more than one a week.
Do AA meetings sign court papers?
Generally yes, though asking before the meeting rather than after is wiser. Some meetings carry a Proof of Attendance label, which means the group has said in advance that it will, and that label is in the table where a group set it. If no local group will sign, another on this page may.
How much time does this take?
Most run for an hour and start and finish on time. Early on, people often go daily, because the gap between meetings is the hard part rather than the meeting itself. Going to two in a week is a better test than going to one.
Will I be asked to say anything in front of people?
No. There is no going round the room and no turn you have to take. There is no expectation that a newcomer contributes anything. Speaker meetings are mostly one person talking, which is the least demanding format of all.
