The EDM FD and PR Committees provide regional collaboration within the zone by bringing regional subcommittee members together on the same platform, to offer the possibility to exchange experience, and service materials, and get in direct contact with other FD and PR subcommittees around the zone. Participants include present and past trusted servants, RDs, WB members, NAWS staff, and any interested members.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

There are often a variety of barriers that prevent NA from growing and thriving in certain locations. These barriers can be a result of geography, technology, culture, language, economic disadvantage, or a result of members being detached from the service structure.<\/p>\n

We have a Fellowship Development Committee which is doing the work of the EDM; to strengthen groups and communities in our geographical surroundings, to make them aware of the support and resources available, and to carry NA\u2019s message by building relationships with other NA members<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
