According to the event organiser from Narcotics Anonymous, one of the primary goals of the event is to provide inspiration and hope to those who are struggling with addiction.
When individuals listen to personal stories and experiences of speakers who have overcome their own battles with narcotics addiction, it can serve as a powerful source of encouragement. Knowing that recovery is possible and that there is a supportive community ready to help can be a lifeline for those in need.
Addiction often carries a heavy burden of stigma. By organising events like this, Narcotics Anonymous aims to break down the misconceptions and prejudices that surround addiction. Sharing stories and providing a safe, non-judgmental space for open dialogue helps to reduce the shame and isolation that many individuals face.
The event also serves as an educational platform, where attendees can learn more about the nature of addiction, the recovery process and the resources available to them.
Knowledge is a powerful tool and by disseminating accurate information, they empower individuals to make informed decisions about their recovery journey.

Narcotics Anonymous is built on the foundation of fellowship and mutual support. These events provide an opportunity for individuals in recovery to connect with others who understand their struggles.
Building a sense of community and belonging is instrumental in maintaining long-term sobriety.
By hosting this event, the organisation will be contributing to raising awareness about the challenges of addiction in the community.
This increased awareness can lead to more resources being allocated for addiction treatment and support services.
The Narcotics Anonymous speaker event will take place on Saturday, November 4 from 8:00AM. Drug addicts and all other residents are encouraged to attend and be part of the solution.
