Excerpts from the 12 Traditions and I.P. #15
- PI and the NA member
-
An NA group
ought never endorse, finance, or lend
the NA name to any related facility or
outside enterprise, lest problems of
money, property, or prestige divert us
from our primary purpose.
-
Narcotics
Anonymous has no opinion on outside
issues; hence the NA name ought never be
drawn into public controversy.
-
Our public
relations policy is based on attraction
rather than promotion; we need always
maintain personal anonymity at the level
of press, radio, and films.
-
Anonymity is
the spiritual foundation of all our
traditions, ever reminding us to place
principles before personalities.
What is the importance of anonymity?
This is a “we” program, and in public
information the concept that “I can’t, we
can”
is vital. Our spiritual foundation of
anonymity can be seriously damaged by
members
acting independently.
We do not give our last names nor appear in
the media as members of Narcotics
Anonymous. As part of our spiritual program
of recovery, we avoid self-promotion in
favor of a more humble style of service. In
our experience, members who become
“media stars” in relationship to their
membership in NA run the risk of placing the
spiritual foundation of their recovery in
jeopardy as well as giving the public an
inaccurate perspective of recovery in NA.
