Narcotics Anonymous (NA)
Narcotics Anonymous (NA) is a support group for individuals recovering from drug addiction. Founded in 1953, it operates on a 12-step program borrowed from Alcoholics Anonymous, emphasizing personal accountability, sharing experiences, and mutual support. Members attend meetings to discuss their struggles, share successes, and offer encouragement to one another in a non-judgmental environment. The meetings are typically anonymous and free, fostering a sense of community and support. NA aims to help individuals achieve and maintain sobriety while rebuilding their lives, emphasizing the importance of connection and understanding in the recovery process.
