Nar-Anon Family Groups
Nar-Anon Family Groups are a fellowship of relatives and friends of drug addicts who share their experience, strength, and hope in order to solve their common problems. We believe drug addiction is a family illness and that changed attitudes can aid recovery.
Nar-Anon is not affiliated with any church, organization, or institution. There are no dues or fees.
Nar-Anon has but one purpose: to help relatives and friends of addicts. We do this by practicing the Twelve Steps ourselves, by welcoming and giving comfort to families and friends of addicts, and by giving understanding and encouragement to the addict.

Twelve Steps Of Nar-Aron
1
We admitted we were powerless over the Addict -- that our lives had become unmanageable.
2
Came to believe that a Power greater than ourselves could restore us to sanity.
3
Made a decision to turn our will and our lives over to the care of God as we understood Him.
4
Made a searching and fearless moral inventory of ourselves.
5
Admitted to God, to ourselves, and to another human being the exact nature of our wrongs.
6
Were entirely ready to have God remove all these defects of character.
7
Humbly asked Him to remove our shortcomings.
8
Made a list of all persons we had harmed, and became willing to make amends to them all.
9
Made direct amends to such people whenever possible except when to do so would injure them or others.
10
Continued to take personal inventory and when we were wrong promptly admitted it.
11
Sought through prayer and meditation to improve our conscious contact with God as we understood Him, praying only for knowledge of His will for us and the power to carry that out.
12
Having had a spiritual awakening as a result of these steps, we tried to carry this message to others, and to practice these principles in all our affairs.
