PCASC PR/PI Subcommittee
Public Relations / Public Information
The purpose of the Public Relations / Public Information Subcommittee is to inform the public that Narcotics Anonymous exists, and that we offer recovery from active addiction. We do this by creating, distributing and managing all communications regarding Narcotics Anonymous throughout the Northern New Jersey Area, in accordance with the Twelve Traditions and Twelve Concepts of Narcotics Anonymous as well as the Narcotics Anonymous Guide to Public Information and “A Guide to Narcotics Anonymous Helpline Service in New Jersey”.
Our objective is to carry out our primary purpose in accordance with the Fifth Tradition: “To carry the message to the addict who still suffers.” We do so in accordance with our 11th Tradition: “Our public relations policy is based on attraction rather than promotion; we need always maintain personal anonymity at the level of press, radio, and films.” We do this by making information available to addicts and the public in a manner that is clear and objective.
PR/PI meets the first Friday of every month (see the calendar page for more details) beginning 8pm at 460 Lafayette Ave, Hawthorne, NJ.
* The PR/PI Subcommittee Chairperson position is an open position and the monthly meeting may not be taking place until the porstion is filled.
