NAR-ANON NEWFOUNDLAND

*****************************************

The Nar-Anon Family Group is primarily for you who know or have known a feeling of
desperation concerning the addiction problem of someone very near to you. We have
traveled that unhappy road too and found the answer with serenity and peace of mind.

When you come into the family group you are no longer alone but among true friends
who understand your problems as few others could. We will respect your confidence
and anonymity as we know you will respect ours. We hope to give you the assurance
that no situation is too difficult and no unhappiness is too great to be overcome.

Our program, which is not a religious one but a spiritual way of life is based on the 12
suggested steps of Narcotics Anonymous. We have found that the working of these
steps will bring the solution to practically any problem.

We urge you to take this program and its 12 steps seriously. It has been helpful to us as
the NA program is to the addict. We only ask for the widsom and courage to see
oursevles as we really are, to do something about ourselves with the help of a higher
power as understand this, and for the grace to release our addicts with love and cease
trying to change them. .

Keep an open mind and attend as many meetings as possible. Feel free to ask
questions and to enter into the discussions. You will soon make new friends and feel
very much a part of the group.

With the understanding that addiction is a disease and the realization that we are
powerless over it as well as over people's lives, we are ready to do something useful
and constructive with our own.

Then, and only then can we be of any help to others.
