We welcome you, whatever your gender, sexual orientation, income, religion, or race. Anyone with a desire to stop drinking, one day at a time, is welcome. It is free to attend AA. You can just come and listen. Or you can talk and share. It’s up to you.

Alcoholics Anonymous is a fellowship of people who come together to solve their drinking problem.  It doesn’t cost anything to attend A.A. meetings. There are no age or education requirements to participate. Membership is open to anyone who wants to do something about their drinking problem.

A.A.’s primary purpose is to help alcoholics to achieve sobriety.

A.A. is not allied with any sect, denomination, politics, organization or institution; does not wish to engage in any controversy, neither endorses nor opposes any causes.

Anonymity is the spiritual foundation of our program. If we are to recover, we must feel free to say what is in our mids and hearts. 

匿名戒酒會（Alcoholics Anonymous，簡稱 A.A.）是一個由人們聚集在一起，解決酗酒問題的團體。參加 A.A. 的會議不需要任何費用，也沒有年齡或教育程度的限制。任何想要改善自己飲酒問題的人都可以加入 A.A.。

A.A. 的首要目的是幫助酗酒者達到戒酒的目標。

A.A. 不隸屬於任何宗派、教派、政治、組織或機構；不參與任何爭議，也不支持或反對任何主張。

匿名性是我們計劃的精神基石。為了能夠康復，我們必須感到自由，能夠坦率地表達內心的想法與感受。

Anyone with a desire to stop drinking is welcome to join any meeting, regardless of race, gender, sexual orientation, religion, income, or profession. You don’t have to pay anything to attend.

You can just sit and listen and learn more about recovery, or you can share about your situation. It's completely up to you.

At most meetings you will hear members talk about what drinking did to them and to those around them. Most also share what actions they took to stop drinking and how they are living their lives today.

The purpose of all meetings is for A.A. members to “share their experience, strength and hope with each other that they may solve their common problem and help others to recover from alcoholism.”

Meeting Types

Meetings are typically listed as "open" or "closed" meetings.

• Open meetings are available to anyone interested in Alcoholics Anonymous’s program of recovery from alcoholism. Nonalcoholics may attend open meetings as observers.

• Closed meetings are for A.A. members only or for those who have a drinking problem and “have a desire to stop drinking.”

Common Meeting Formats

Discussion. Whether closed or open, an A.A. member serving as “leader” or “chair” opens the meeting using that group’s format, and selects a topic for discussion.  Background for many topic meetings derives from A.A. literature, such as Alcoholics Anonymous (Big Book), Twelve Steps and Twelve Traditions, As Bill Sees It, Daily Reflections, and from AA Grapevine.

Speaker. One or more members selected beforehand "share" — as described in the Big Book — telling "what we were like, what happened, and what we are like now." Depending on the meeting's general guidelines (determined by the "group conscience"), some groups prefer that members who speak have a minimum period of continuous sobriety. Speaker meetings often are open meetings.

Beginners. Usually led by a group member who has been sober awhile, these are sessions to help newcomers. Beginners meetings may also follow a discussion format, or focus on Steps One, Two and Three. (A Guide for Leading Beginners Meetings is available from G.S.O.)

Step, Tradition or Big Book. Because the Twelve Steps are the foundation of personal recovery in A.A., many groups devote one or more meetings a week to the study of each Step in rotation; some discuss two or three Steps at a time. These same formats may be applied to group meetings on the Big Book or the Twelve Traditions. Many groups make it a practice to read aloud pertinent material from the Big Book or Twelve Steps and Twelve Traditions at the beginning of the meeting.

What Happens at Meetings

The chair usually opens the meeting with the A.A. Preamble and a few remarks. Some call for a moment of silence and/or recite the Serenity Prayer. The chair will often ask if there are any people new to A.A. attending the meeting who would like to introduce themselves. It isn’t mandatory to identify yourself but it might be helpful if you are attending your first meeting. Many meetings begin with a reading from the Big Book — frequently a portion of Chapter 5 (“How It Works”) or Chapter 3 (“More About Alcoholism”). A statement about anonymity in A.A. as a valuable privacy principle for new and longtime members might be read. Many meetings close with members joining in a moment of silence followed by a prayer, or perhaps by reciting the Responsibility Statement or other A.A. text.

After the Meeting

People gather and talk, and there is a social air in the room once the meeting is over. Some may introduce themselves to you and offer their help or share their experiences getting sober. While many members find this time after the meeting valuable, it is up to you if you want to stay and socialise.

任何有意願停止飲酒的人都歡迎參加任何會議，無論種族、性別、性取向、宗教信仰、收入或職業為何。參加會議完全免費。
你可以選擇只坐著聆聽並學習更多關於康復的內容，也可以分享自己的情況，這完全取決於你自己。

在大多數會議中，你會聽到成員談論飲酒對他們以及周圍人的影響。他們通常也會分享自己是如何採取行動停止飲酒的，以及今天如何生活。
所有會議的目的是讓 A.A. 成員「分享他們的經驗、力量和希望，以便解決共同的問題，並幫助其他人從酗酒中康復。」

會議類型

會議通常分為「公開會議」和「閉門會議」。

• 公開會議：任何對匿名戒酒會（A.A.）康復計劃感興趣的人都可以參加，非酗酒者也可以以觀察者身份參加公開會議。

• 閉門會議：僅限 A.A. 成員或那些有飲酒問題並「希望停止飲酒」的人參加。

常見的會議形式

討論會議
無論是公開還是閉門會議，一位 A.A. 成員會作為「秘書」或「主持人」主持會議。主持人會使用該團體的會議形式，並選擇一個討論主題。許多主題會議的背景來自 A.A. 文獻，例如《匿名戒酒會》（大書）、《十二步驟與十二傳統》、《比爾的觀點》、《每日反思》或《A.A. 葡萄藤》。

演講會議
一位或多位成員會在會議中分享——如《大書》中所描述的那樣——講述「我們過去是什麼樣子、發生了什麼，以及我們現在是什麼樣子」。根據會議的指導原則（由「團體良知」決定），一些團體希望分享的成員有一段最短連續戒酒時間。演講會議通常是公開會議。

初學者會議
通常由戒酒已有一段時間的成員主持，這些會議旨在幫助新成員。初學者會議可能採用討論形式，或者專注於步驟一、二和三。（有關初學者會議的指導手冊可向總服務辦公室（G.S.O.）索取。）

步驟、傳統或大書會議
由於十二步驟是 A.A. 個人康復的基礎，許多團體每週會安排一場或多場會議，輪流學習每一步驟；有些會一次討論兩三個步驟。這些形式也可用於專注於《大書》或《十二傳統》的小組會議。許多團體會在會議開始時朗讀《大書》或《十二步驟與十二傳統》的相關內容。

會議中的流程

主持人通常會以 A.A. 的開場白開始會議，並發表一些簡短的講話。有些會議會安排片刻默禱，或誦讀《平靜祈禱文》。主持人經常會詢問是否有首次參加 A.A. 的新成員願意自我介紹。自我介紹並非強制，但如果你是第一次參加，這麼做可能會對你有幫助。

許多會議會以朗讀《大書》中的某些章節作為開場——通常是第五章（「它是如何運作的」）或第三章（「更多關於酗酒」）。會議可能還會朗讀關於匿名性的重要性，說明其對新成員和老成員的隱私保護。許多會議會在結束時安排成員進行片刻默禱，隨後誦讀祈禱文，或誦讀《責任宣言》或其他 A.A. 文本。

會議後的時光

會議結束後，人們通常會聚在一起交談，房間內會呈現一種輕鬆的社交氛圍。一些成員可能會主動介紹自己，提供幫助，或分享他們戒酒的經驗。雖然許多成員認為會後的時間非常有價值，但是否留下來社交完全取決於你自己。
