NA Literature Now Available Online

Click here for Online NA Literature

The NA World Service is now making selected items of NA Literature available online! 

 Here is an excerpt from the NAWS New Year's greeting  to our region::  "As we welcome in the new year, we wanted to let you know that the Basic Text is now available online!  This is the first tangible step in the process of placing our book-length pieces online, as we reported at WSC 2006 and since" 

Download NA Logos

We are providing downloadable files containing approved NA Logo and Symbol artwork. These are intended to assist groups and trusted servants in producing flyers, meeting lists, etc.

Please bear in mind that use of NA trademarks is governed by the Fellowship Intellectual Property Trust (FIPT). These are trademarked images, and must be used with respect.

The CSO has asked all groups and areas in the region not to use the CSO's tax id on checking accounts.  Your group or area can get its own tax id (called a Federal Employer Identification Number).  Call the IRS office at 1-800-829-4933 and ask for the EIN operation.

Service pamphlets are intended for help in your discussion in group business meetings or in service committees.

Service pamphlets are intended to be one more tool to assist us all in our efforts to carry the message to the addict who still suffers.
