What
Is the Narcotics Anonymous Program?
NA is
a nonprofit fellowship or society of men and women for
whom drugs
had become a major problem. We are recovering
addicts who meet
regularly to help each other stay clean. This
is a program of
complete abstinence from all drugs. There is
only one requirement
for membership, the desire to stop using.
We suggest that you
keep an open mind and give yourself a
break. Our program is a set
of principles written so simply that
we can follow them in our
daily lives. The most important thing
about them is that they
work.
There are no strings attached to NA. We are not
affiliated
with any other organizations. We have no initiation
fees or
dues, no pledges to sign, no promises to make to
anyone.
We are not connected with any political, religious, or
law
enforcement groups, and are under no surveillance at
any
time. Anyone may join us regardless of age, race,
sexual
identity, creed, religion, or lack of religion.
We are
not interested in what or how much you used or who
your
connections were, what you have done in the past, how
much or how
little you have, but only in what you want to do
about your
problem and how we can help. The newcomer is
the most important
person at any meeting, because we can
only keep what we have by
giving it away. We have learned
from our group experience that
those who keep coming to our
meetings regularly stay
clean.
