Ways to Help NAMA Recovery

How can I help NAMA-R?

Here’s how.


Join NAMA-R

Sounds simple really especially when patients, family, professionals, policy makers, state methadone authorities, students and so on depend on NAMA for information and help. But for some reason many think that others will do it or they forget. NAMA depends on membership dues to pay for the phone, website and things we need to operate. It is barely enough. No one is paid a salary at NAMA so your money goes directly to furthering medication assisted treatment advocacy and helping patients.

Now that should give you some warm feelings.
