In the process of asking how we help members take root in NA, we confirmed something vital: Our roots are already deep and intertwined. When “all manifestations of the recovering person” come together in unity, our symbol tells us, “The greater the base, (as we grow in unity in numbers and in fellowship) the broader the sides of the pyramid, and the higher the point of freedom.” We are grateful, in a moment when there is so much polarization around us, to be together in a Fellowship that has demonstrated such a powerful ability to stand together with all our differences. We look forward to continuing this conversation, acknowledging the unity we are already demonstrating and building on that to create a wider door, a broader base, and a greater understanding of how we grow from here.
We begin with some very basic questions seeking actual experience from local communities.
