Minority Groups – Disabilities in NA is one of many minority groups in NA. We link in with illness in recovery groups and mental illness groups. The difference with us is we place a special focus on disabilities and are providing a platform for members with disabilities to connect in a way that isn’t happening in general meetings. Members of our group might feel separate, isolated and different, our aim is to help us feel heard and included with identification and empathy.
