What members read between meetings

A.A.'s own literature does most of the heavy lifting between meetings in Mississippi. 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 Mississippi

Jackson and Central Mississippi

Jackson Area Intergroup serves Hinds, Rankin, and Madison counties, including longstanding meetings in Belhaven, Fondren, and the downtown business district. The metro's meeting list reflects Jackson's role as the state's recovery hub. Vicksburg, on the Mississippi River, maintains a smaller but consistent calendar.

Gulf Coast: Biloxi, Gulfport, and Pascagoula

The Gulf Coast Intergroup serves Harrison, Hancock, and Jackson counties along the coast, with meetings that have shaped continuously through hurricane-recovery cycles. The casino-industry economy means several meetings serve hospitality-workforce schedules. Bay St. Louis, Ocean Springs, and the smaller coastal communities each maintain weekly meetings.

Delta, North Mississippi, and the Pine Belt

Oxford has a meeting cluster near the University of Mississippi. Tupelo serves Northeast Mississippi. The Delta communities (Greenville, Cleveland, Clarksdale) maintain smaller but tight-knit meeting networks shaped by the region's distinctive culture. Hattiesburg serves the Pine Belt with a calendar shaped in part by the University of Southern Mississippi.

Getting to a meeting in Mississippi

JATRAN serves Jackson, CTA serves the Gulf Coast metro. Outside those, driving is the standard option. Amtrak's City of New Orleans runs through the state, stopping at Jackson, Hazlehurst, and McComb.
