Got a few minutes to share some feedback?
Every 5 years Narcotics Anonymous (NA)  World Service along with the Australian Region Service Committee (ARSC) undertake a survey of our members. The survey helps NA understand the needs, and wants of our members, the demography of our members including age, culture, as well as drugs of choice and pathways to NA. The survey is entirely anonymous, confidential, and no-one can identify you.
The survey results allow the NA Australia Regional Service Committee (ARSC) to carry the message to all addicts, as well as to inform external health professionals of our membership profile. For further information on the survey you are welcome to write to the ARSC PR Chair at: info@na.org.au
It is entirely your choice to complete the survey, but if you do, it is greatly appreciated. It will take about 12 minutes to complete. You can access the survey at this URL:

NA Public Liability Insurance Policy Update

/0 Comments/in /by

Dear NA Members

You may have seen that the NA Public Liability Insurance Policy has been renewed for 23-24.

This updated Policy should be provided to Venues that are hired by groups and meetings.

A link is provided below to the website where all Insurance documents and guidance is provided. https://www.na.org.au/multi/arsc-related-information-and-documentation/insurance/

Please bookmark this link and ensure that this information is communicated widely amongst groups and members.

It is very important that this information be communicated to all Areas and Members hiring venues and running events, as it is the organisers’ responsibility to ensure that:

  1. The event they are running is covered by NA’s insurance.
  2. If it is not clear if the event they are running is covered by NA’s insurance, that they ask the Treasurer to clarify the coverage with the insurer.
  3. For Camps and Overnight events that a Risk Assessment Plan be completed and provided to the Insurer. Cover is conditional on receipt of this Plan.

If you have any questions, please contact the Treasurer and Chair via email in the first instance at treasurer@na.org.au and chair@na.org.au.
