Outreach

The purpose of the Outreach Subcommittee is to reach out to the isolated or struggling groups within our area and to act as a communication link between that group and the Area Service Committee (ASC). The goal of these efforts is intended to provide support and assist groups to learn how to help themselves.

Any member of Narcotics Anonymous may attend the subcommittee meetings and become a member of the subcommittee. The area outreach subcommittee encourages member support. A subcommittee member travels to the groups as a representative of the Outreach Committee and/or the ASC.

Some of these activities included in the function of this subcommittee are:

• Attending groups not represented at ASC and share the importance of group involvement in the Area.
• Passing on information about the NA service structure.
• Helping addicts by supporting new meetings.
• Encouraging groups to make announcements and fliers, and provide information about new meetings and meetings needing support to more established meetings.
• Bringing unity and a message to groups: You are not alone.
