How can we let families and friends of addicts know about Nar-Anon? By doing outreach to spread awareness! The focus of outreach is to let families and friends of addicts know that help is available.
An outreach committee acts as a vital link between individuals seeking help and Nar-Anon members who share their experience, strength, and hope.
Outreach
Step Twelve invites us to carry Nar-Anon’s message of hope to others. Outreach offers a way to carry the message by increasing awareness of Nar-Anon Family Groups.
The focus of outreach is to let families and friends of addicts and professionals who may come in contact with them know that help is available. Spreading awareness through outreach assists in the growth of local groups, areas, and regions and the fellowship as a whole.
Performing Outreach
All levels of the fellowship - local groups, areas and regions - can support outreach and be part of the vital link between individuals seeking help and Nar-Anon members who share their experience, strength, and hope.
Consider forming an Outreach Committee to better coordinate outreach efforts. With Mission, Vision Statement and Principles in mind, an Outreach Committee can be designed to meet the needs of each community.
