Editor –
Narcotics Anonymous (NA) is pleased to announce that they have expanded their NA online meetings programme to 10 meetings each day of the week. This helps ensure that every addict, and every person who feels they may have a drug problem, can attend a daily meeting if they are unable to attend one of the 350 existing face-to-face meetings happening across South Africa.
Online Narcotics Anonymous meetings were launched in 2019 with the objective of providing an NA meeting to persons, communities and patients unable to travel to any of the existing face-to-face meetings held across South Africa.

The growth of NA’s online meetings has been substantial: these digital meetings are reaching communities and individuals in South Africa’s remote regions, many of which have not yet benefited from face-to-face NA meetings.
The online platform additionally provides valuable information, skills transfer and hands-on experience regarding how to run an NA meeting, while functioning as a vital resource for those unable to get to meetings.
NA’s programme is based on the ’12 Steps’ which are, simply put, a set of guiding principles through which many have found recovery.
The journey through these steps can be life-changing. Our message is simple: an addict – any addict – can stop using drugs, lose the desire to use, and find a new way to live.
