What members read between meetings

A.A.'s own literature does most of the heavy lifting between meetings in Kentucky. These are the books most often spotted on a member's bookshelf, with a short note on what each one is for. Each card is tagged with its language.

Cover of Alcoholics Anonymous (the Big Book)

The book Bill W. and Dr. Bob wrote first, in 1939. Most members pick up a copy in their first week or two and keep it close.

Look on Amazon
Cover of Twelve Steps and Twelve Traditions

Bill W.'s longer essays on each Step and each Tradition. The usual companion read once the Big Book starts to feel familiar.

Look on Amazon
Cover of Living Sober

A short, practical book about the day-to-day of staying sober. Often the one a sponsor suggests in the first month.

Look on Amazon
Cover of Daily Reflections

One short A.A. reading for each day of the year, with a thought to carry into it. Members often keep a copy on the kitchen counter.

Look on Amazon
Cover of As Bill Sees It

Brief passages from A.A.'s co-founder, arranged by topic. Some groups read one aloud at the top of every meeting.

About AA in Kentucky

Louisville and Jefferson County

Louisville Area Intergroup serves Louisville and the surrounding Jefferson, Bullitt, and Oldham counties. The city's meeting calendar includes long-running groups in the Highlands, NuLu, the Original Highlands, and downtown. The Spanish-language meeting presence has grown in recent years. The South End and West End neighborhoods have their own meeting clusters.

Lexington and the Bluegrass

Lexington Area Intergroup serves Fayette County and the surrounding Bluegrass communities. The University of Kentucky anchors a substantial young-people's meeting presence. Horse-industry workers add their own rhythms to weekday meeting schedules. Georgetown, Versailles, and the smaller Bluegrass counties round out the region's calendar.

Northern Kentucky and the Cincinnati commute

Northern Kentucky Intergroup serves Boone, Kenton, and Campbell counties, with a meeting culture shaped in part by the Cincinnati commute. Covington, Newport, and Florence each have established calendars. Several meetings here coordinate with the Cincinnati fellowship across the river.

Appalachian Kentucky and Western Kentucky

Eastern Kentucky's meeting network reaches across Pike, Floyd, Harlan, Letcher, and the surrounding Appalachian counties. The region's recovery community has been heavily shaped by the opioid crisis and the broader public-health response. Western Kentucky's meeting calendar runs from Bowling Green through Owensboro to Paducah, with regional networks shaped by the agricultural and industrial economies.
