NA as a whole has no opinion on outside issues, including prescribed medications. It has been the experience of NA members that complete and continuous abstinence provides the best foundation for recovery and personal growth. In Narcotics Anonymous, membership is based on a desire to stop using drugs including alcohol and has as a foundation, the principle of complete abstinence. NA has only one mission: to provide an environment in which addicts can help one another stop using drugs and find a new way to live. Additionally, the fellowship does not offer vocational, legal, financial, psychiatric, or medical services. As an organization, NA does not employ profes- sional counselors or therapists nor does it provide residential facilities or clinics. Narcotics Anonymous is not affiliated with other organizations, including other twelve step pro- grams, treatment centers, or correctional facilities. There are no dues or fees for member- ship most members regularly contribute in meet ings to help cover the expenses incurred for the rent of facility space. There are no social, religious, economic, racial, ethnic, national, gender, or class-status membership restrictions. Narcotics Anonymous itself is a non-religious program of recovery each member is encouraged to cultivate an individual understanding-religious or not-of the spiritual principles and apply these principles to everyday life. These principles are the core of the Narcotics Anonymous recovery program. Members share their successes and challenges in overcoming active addiction and living drug-free, productive lives through the application of the principles contained within the Twelve Steps and Twelve Traditions of NA. One of the keys to NA’s success is the therapeutic value of addicts working with other addicts. Narcotics Anonymous provides a recovery process and peer support network that are linked together. When adapting AA’s First Step, the word “ad- diction” was substituted for “alcohol,” thus removing drug-specific language and reflecting the “disease concept” of addiction. Membership is open to all drug addicts, regardless of the particular drug or combination of drugs used.
We are not interested in what or how much you used but only in what you want to do about your problem and how we can help.”
We meet regularly to help each other stay clean. NA’s earliest self-titled pamphlet, known among members as “the White Booklet,” describes Narcotics Anonymous this way: “NA is a nonprofit fellowship or society of men and women for whom drugs had become a major problem.
