For the Public

Narcotics Anonymous is a global, community-based organization with a multilingual and multicultural membership. NA was founded in 1953 and today, NA members hold more than 76,000 meetings weekly in 143 countries. We offer recovery from the effects of addiction through working a twelve-step program, including regular attendance at group meetings. The group atmosphere provides help from peers and offers an ongoing support network for addicts who wish to pursue and maintain a drug free lifestyle.

Narcotics Anonymous values building relationships with those in government, the clergy, the helping professions, and private voluntary organizations. We believe that the maintenance of successful relationships involves ongoing dialogue and mutual communication. Our experience shows that we have many non-addict friends that can advocate for NA.

The Southeastern Zone of Narcotics Anonymous covers Florida, Georgia, North and South Carolina, Alabama, and Kentucky and cooperates with professionals and organizations, by providing information about recovery through the NA Fellowship. Additionally, NA members are often available to make panel presentations in educational facilities, treatment centers and correctional facilities as well as other public venues.
