The River Coast consists of Citrus and Hernando counties in Florida. We have approximately 20 regular NA meetings each week.

Any addict seeking recovery is welcome at our meetings. The only requirement is a desire to stop using.

We hold a weekend NA Campout in Weeki Wachee each year. Generally this is held the final weekend of September at the Weeki Wachee Christian Campground. For more information about our Annual River Coast Area Campout, check our events calendar as September approaches.

We have many members with a day clean, a week clean, a month clean, several months to several years clean. We can help you get clean and stay clean the NA way.

Narcotics Anonymous is an international, community-based association of recovering drug addicts with more than 33,500 weekly meetings in over 116 countries worldwide.

NA's earliest self-titled pamphlet, known among members as "the White Booklet," describes Narcotics Anonymous this way:

"NA is a nonprofit fellowship or society of men and women for whom drugs had become a major problem. We b& meet regularly to help each other stay clean. ... We are not interested in what or how much you used ... but only in what you want to do about your problem and how we can help." 

Membership is open to all drug addicts, regardless of the particular drug or combination of drugs used. When adapting AA's First Step, the word addiction was substituted for alcohol, thus removing drug-specific language and reflecting the of addiction.

There are no social, religious, economic, racial, ethnic, national, gender, or class-status membership restrictions. There are no dues or fees for membership; while most members regularly contribute small sums to help cover the expenses of meetings, such contributions are not mandatory.

Narcotics Anonymous provides a recovery process and support network inextricably linked together. One of the keys to NAbs success is the therapeutic value of addicts working with other addicts. Members share their successes and challenges in overcoming active addiction and living drug-free productive lives through the application of the principles contained within the Twelve Steps and Twelve Traditions of NA. These principles are the core of the Narcotics Anonymous recovery program. Principles incorporated within the steps include:

• admitting there is a problem;

• seeking help;

• engaging in a thorough self-examination;

• confidential self-disclosure;

• making amends for harm done; and

• helping other drug addicts who want to recover.
