Information for Professionals

Please feel free to refer people with drug problems to our meetings or pass information about our program to those who may benefit from it. We hope you find the following information helpful.

NA is a free member-driven, international organization in which no dues or fees are charged for membership. All we ask is that a potential member have a desire to stop using drugs. Members recover from the disease of addiction by application of the principles contained in the Twelve Steps. Our program is based on a set of spiritual principles, and we have no affiliation with any organized religion. People from a wide variety of beliefs, including atheists and agnostics, find recovery in Narcotics Anonymous.

Narcotics Anonymous is a twelve-step approach to recovery with the primary purpose of helping any individual stop using drugs. NA’s program focuses on an addict’s recovery from the disease of addiction, rather than any specific drug. Through our group meetings and the therapeutic value of one addict helping another, addicts learn how to live drug-free and productive lives.
