Regional Service Committee (RSC)

Every element of the NA service structure – whether it is a group, service board, or committee – exists to serve the needs of those who created it. Narcotics Anonymous groups, for instance, host meetings where members can share their recovery with one another and carry the NA message straight to the still suffering addict. Area service committees provide direct NA services that help groups work better and carry their message farther than they could on their own. Regional service committees (RSC's) generally do not perform direct services – that is, they don't run phone lines, organize H&I panels, or carry out a public information program. Regions are formed simply to pool and develop local service resources that can be used both by groups and areas in better fulfilling their responsibilities.

Some of the responsibilities of the South African RSC include outreach programmes, the first of which involves NA in Mozambique, helping co-ordinate Local Translation Committees and the Website Committee.

The RSC now meet using chat programmes on the Net. E-mail the RSC at for the address if you are a Regional Service Member.

Note: Service members may now view the latest RSC reports on this website. For the password, e-mail the RSC at .

Draft Service IP

Service members are invited to contribute to the development of the Draft Service IP.

Initial work has been done in the UK; some work has been done locally on the content and on abbreviating stories. Ideally stories should be replaced with local content. For the password to the Service Documents Area, e-mail the RSC at .
