Questions about AA in Boston

What is listed for Boston?

116 a week, run by 83 groups inside Boston.

Which day is busiest for AA in Boston?

Every day. Wednesday is the busiest with 23 meetings, and no day is empty.

What is the difference between an open and a closed meeting in Boston?

93 of the 116 listed here are marked open, which means anyone can attend, including family. 22 are marked closed, for people who want to stop drinking.

What is the difference between a group and a meeting?

83 groups listed in Boston. A group is the set of people who run a meeting, and most run more than one a week.

Are there gay or lesbian meetings near Boston?

Yes. 28 meetings are listed as LGBTQ meetings within reach of Boston.

How much time does this take?

An hour in most rooms. Speaker meetings sometimes run longer. A meeting that overruns is unusual enough to be remarked on. A morning meeting is an option in some towns and the table says where.

Is going to meetings enough on its own?

No. A meeting is support; treatment is medical care. Detox is the clearest dividing line: withdrawing from alcohol can be medically dangerous, and a meeting is not equipped for it while a clinical service is. Doing both is common and neither rules the other out.

Can I go to AA if I am an atheist?

No. There is no creed to accept and no congregation to join. Rooms vary enormously: some lean hard on the religious language and others barely touch it. Plenty of people have made it work without resolving the question at all.
