The Chronicles of New York NA: From Origins to Resilience

Our aim has been to give this history continuity where it came from, how it got started, why it disappeared, how it reappeared and how it grew from two meetings to the fourth-largest region of narcotics anonymous in the world.
Ever wondered how Narcotics Anonymous took root in New York? In this episode of 'myRecoveryCast', hosts Ron H. and Dave F. guide us through the compelling journey of NA's history in the Empire State. They unravel the meticulous process behind writing the New York NA history book, a project that involved interviewing over a hundred members and piecing together stories from the pre-NA era.
The episode offers a deep dive into the fellowship's origins, highlighting how literature played a crucial role in its growth and how the community faced the devastating impact of AIDS. The hosts also address the controversies that surrounded the book's publication and distribution, adding layers of intrigue to the narrative. With their authentic and encouraging tone, Ron and Dave capture the resilience and triumphs of NA in New York.
This episode is a must-listen for anyone interested in understanding the rich history and enduring spirit of Narcotics Anonymous.
