"3rd Tradition of Narcotics Anonymous"
Narcotics Anonymous
Program?
NA is a nonprofit fellowship or society of men and women for
whom drugs had become a major problem. We are recovering
addicts who meet regularly to help each other stay clean. This
is a program of complete abstinence from all drugs. There is
only one requirement for membership, the desire to stop using.
We suggest that you keep an open mind and give yourself a
break. Our program is a set of principles written so simply that
we can follow them in our daily lives. The most important thing
about them is that they work.
There are no strings attached to NA. We are not affiliated
with any other organizations. We have no initiation fees or
dues, no pledges to sign, no promises to make to anyone.
We are not connected with any political, religious, or law
enforcement groups, and are under no surveillance at any
time. Anyone may join us regardless of age, race, sexual
identity, creed, religion, or lack of religion.
We are not interested in what or how much you used or who
your connections were, what you have done in the past, how
much or how little you have, but only in what you want to do
about your problem and how we can help. The newcomer is
the most important person at any meeting, because we can
only keep what we have by giving it away. We have learned
from our group experience that those who keep coming to our
meetings regularly stay clean.
Our Small Wonder Area of NA was established July 19, 1986 and currently has 44 weekly meetings which also includes our first ever Spanish speaking meeting (Mission of Hope/Mission de Esperanza) and a monthly Area Service meeting. Membership to The Fellowship of Narcotics Anonymous is based on our third tradition."The only requirement for membership is a desire to stop using". Our groups were created to carry out the 5th tradition, "Each group has but one primary purpose—to carry the message to the addict who still suffers". We are one of ten areas that form the Free State Region of Narcotics Anonymous and are part of the Autonomy Zone of Narcotics Anonymous which compiles 6 regions along the east coast. Our Fifth Tradition states, our primary purpose is to carry the message to the addict who still suffers.
The mission of the Small Wonder Area is to fulfill the Narcotics Anonymous promise: that an addict, any addict, can stop using drugs, lose the desire to use, and find a new way to live. In support of addicts throughout our community, we offer area-wide NA meetings, activities and services that bring together both the recovering addict and the newcomer. By sharing our experience, strength and hope in these and other ways, we carry the message of NA to the still suffering addict – helping each of us discover the miracle of recovery that has eluded us for so long: the happiness, joy and freedom of a life without the use of drugs.
As an area we are known for having these simple suggestions to all newcomers and happen to be on our schedule of meetings.
1. Don't pick up that first drug.
2.Stay away from people, places and things from your active addiction.
3.Go to 90 meetings in 90 days.
4. Pray for help in the morning and thank God at night.
5.Get a sponsor, and follow his or her directions.
6.Help another addict.
In 1985, five Narcotics Anonymous groups
( Delaware Step Group, Christmas Group and others) in Northern Delaware joined together to form the new Area Service Committee. On July 19, 1986, 13 Narcotics Anonymous groups including 11 from Delaware ( First State Survivors and Just for Tonight; Claymont, Give It Faith; Newark, Weekend Survivors; Christiana, Give It Time; New Castle, Turn It Over, Serenity Group, Delaware Step Group, Christmas Group, Start Talking About Recovery Group, and Attitudes in Action; Wilmington ) joined together with two groups from Pennsylvania to form the First Small Wonder Area of Narcotics Anonymous ( SWANA ) Service Committee. There is to be no replication of the name Small Wonder Area, SWANA or any other combination of our area's name for merchandise unless first approved by the Small Wonder Area.
