Questions about AA in Portsmouth
How many AA meetings a week does Portsmouth have?
34 meetings in town, out of 3,084 across Virginia.
Can I find a meeting in Portsmouth on any day?
There is at least one listed every day of the week, including Thursday, which is the thinnest day here with 3 meetings.
What is the difference between an open and a closed meeting in Portsmouth?
9 of the 34 listed here are marked open, which means anyone can attend, including family. 6 are marked closed, for people who want to stop drinking.
What is the Big Book?
A single volume carrying the steps and a long set of members' stories. Roughly half of it is personal accounts from members, which is the part most people find readable first. Literature meetings are flagged in the table where groups say so.
Can I find a meeting that is not in English?
Yes, in many areas, and the coverage varies a great deal by region. Spanish language groups are widespread in some states and absent from others, following the population rather than any policy. Any language markers held for Portsmouth appear with the meeting itself.
What is a step meeting?
Twelve stages, from admitting the problem through to helping other people. Some rooms talk about them constantly and others barely mention them. The schedule gives the day and venue for each.
