Regular meeting attendance, working with a sponsor, and getting involved in service are the three pillars that most recovering addicts in Stallion Springs credit with keeping them clean. Together, these practices create a life worth living without drugs.

Can I attend NA if I am on medication-assisted treatment?
NA does not have an opinion on outside issues, including medication. Members who take medication prescribed by a doctor are welcome. However, NA defines "clean" as complete abstinence from all drugs, which individual members may interpret differently.
