The 12 Steps of NA
Narcotics Anonymous (NA) is a nonprofit fellowship for recovering drug addicts across the world. NA offers a 12-step program to help members achieve and maintain abstinence from drug use. The 12 steps are:
- We admitted we were powerless over our addiction, that our lives had become unmanageable.
- We came to believe that a Power greater than ourselves could restore us to sanity.
- We made a decision to turn our will and our lives over to the care of God as we understood Him.
- We made a searching and fearless moral inventory of ourselves.
- We admitted to God, to ourselves, and to another human being the exact nature of our wrongs.
- We were entirely ready to have God remove all these defects of character.
- We humbly asked Him to remove our shortcomings.
- We made a list of all persons we had harmed and became willing to make amends to them all.
- We made direct amends to such people wherever possible, except when to do so would injure them or others.
- We continued to take personal inventory and when we were wrong promptly admitted it.
- We 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.
- Having had a spiritual awakening as the result of these steps, we tried to carry this message to addicts, and to practice these principles in all our affairs.
NA meetings across Las Vegas, Clark County, and the state of Nevada aim to motivate members to make positive changes in their lives by working through this 12-step program with the support of others in recovery. NA helps individuals reclaim their lives from the destruction addiction causes.
