From Incarceration to Transformation: A Chance Through Narcotics Anonymous

Publication year: 200 | Cataloged on: Oct. 31, 2006
ANNOTATION: The ability of Narcotics Anonymous (NA) to be "a self-help resource in a correctional setting and a way to sustaining recovery upon release in the community" is addressed (p. 1). This presentation addresses the following topics: who and what is NA; how and why NA works; what NA doesn't do; what is a NA meeting; what is a Hospitals and Institutions (H&I) meeting and how it can help; conducting H&I meetings in correctional settings; various formats for correctional settings and appropriate NA literature; NA meetings in correctional settings (how to start and sustain); and transition to the community and how NA can be a part in reducing recidivism.
