WHAT IS NA?

NA is a non-profit community of men and women for whom drugs have become a significant problem. Narcotics Anonymous is a program of total abstinence from all drugs, we are recovering addicts, helping each other stay clean. NA is open to anyone who feels they need it. Our community is non-professional, self-sufficient, does not discriminate on the basis of religion, race or political affiliation, and can be found almost everywhere in the world. There is no age limit or education qualification for membership.

WHAT IS NA DOING?

1. NA members share their experiences with anyone who asks for help to solve a drug problem. NA provides personal assistance, called sponsorship, to addicts who come to NA from anywhere.
2. Our twelve-step programme shows the addict a way to live a fulfilling life without drugs.
3. This programme is discussed at NA group meetings.
4. Open meetings are open to both drug addicts and interested people. Attending open meetings is the best way to find out what NA is, does and does not do. At these meetings, one or more members tell their own story, their experiences with addiction, how they came to NA and how their lives have changed since then.
5. In open group meetings, one member speaks briefly about their experiences of use and sobering up, followed by a discussion where each contributor talks about their own experiences. Closed meetings are open to NA members and anyone with a drug problem.
6. NA members also hold meetings in medical and correctional institutions.
7. NA members (groups) may be invited to hold information meetings at various events, organisations and institutions.
