Questions about AA in Newark

How many AA meetings are there in Newark?

27 a week, run by 9 groups inside Newark.

Can I find a meeting in Newark on any day?

There is at least one listed every day of the week, including Wednesday, which is the thinnest day here with 1 meeting.

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

16 of the 27 listed here are marked open, which means anyone can attend, including family. 11 are marked closed, for people who want to stop drinking.

What do people read at a Big Book meeting?

The fellowship's own text, part explanation and part personal accounts. A Big Book meeting reads a passage aloud and then people talk about it. The labels above say what each room does.

How do meetings mark time without a drink?

Tokens, and an annual one that rooms call a birthday. Groups buy their own chips out of the basket. Going once tells you more about the room than any description.

Can I go to AA before I have stopped?

Yes. Wanting to stop is the whole of what is asked. Groups generally ask only that someone who has been drinking does not disrupt the meeting, and a quiet person at the back never does. It holds across New Jersey and is not a local rule.
