Narcotics Anonymous, an international, community-based association of recovering drug addicts, provides peer support to other addicts who desire a drug-free outcome. We strive to cooperate with professionals such as therapeutic communities and other organizations with similar goals.

Narcotics Anonymous is one of the world's oldest and largest associations of recovering drug addicts. The NA approach to recovery from drug addiction is completely nonprofessional, relying on peer support. We believe the NA program works as well as it does primarily because of the therapeutic value of addicts helping other addicts. It is an ideal aftercare support network for clients who wish to pursue and maintain a drug free outcome no matter where in the world where they live.

The Canada Atlantic Region was formed in the late 1990s to fill a need by members within Atlantic Canada.  NA service bodies within Atlantic Canada have joined together to create a service structure that provides services for our members and the local communities
