The
Fellowship of Narcotics Anonymous has come a long way since
our beginnings in 1953. We have grown from our first meeting
in Sun Valley, California, USA, to over 40,000 weekly
meetings in over 125 countries worldwide. Our history is
rich with diversity, and we want to share the facts of that
history with you—the little-known facts along with the
well-known ones. If you have interesting facts and
information about Narcotics Anonymous, send them to us at
naway@na.org or NAWS,
Attn: The NA Way Magazine; PO Box 9999; Van Nuys; CA
