  • “Everything that occurs in the course of NA service must be motivated by the desire to more successfully carry the message of recovery to the addict who still suffers.” Basic Text pg. xxvi 
     
    The purpose of the LGBTQC is to provide outreach services to help the LGBTQIA+
    suffering addict to feel part of the lifesaving fellowship of Narcotics Anonymous. In accordance with our traditions, our outreach services will be inclusive of all suffering addicts. Anyone may join us, regardless of age, race, sexual identity, creed, religion or lack of religion. 
     
    Our goal is to further NA’s primary purpose by providing an LGBTQIA+ voice to SCRSC’s committees (Hospitals and Institutions, Public Relations, Phone Lines, Sponsorship Behind the Walls, Cruise, Youth, Activities, and Website), thereby fostering participation and mentorship amongst our fellowship’s LGBTQ (lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, non-binary, intersex, asexual, queer, or questioning) members. 
     
    We believe that in reaching out to the LGBTQIA+ addict, inclusive of any suffering addict, we will promote unity within the fellowship by helping those addicts to find their voices in service and help them to feel a sense of belonging within the community of Narcotics Anonymous as a whole.  
     
    The mission of the LGBTQC will be to develop tools and strategies to make Narcotics Anonymous meetings safe by promoting an atmosphere of recovery in our meetings in which all addicts are welcome. Our services may include, but are not limited to, Region-Wide activities (eg: Annual Pride Event, Halloween Event, plan for LGBTQC Convention), fundraising events, distribution and production of NA service materials (including, but not limited to, LGBTQ Meeting Directory and LGBTQ Newsletter), participation of our members at learning days, conventions and booth sittings, participation in the world board pool, and through the power of example of our member service at a home group level.
