Jimmy K. (Kinnon) founded NA in 1953. Back then it was illegal for addicts to meet under Any circumstances! So they met in church basements, etc., out of the public eye. In 2012, there were Over 62,700 meetings Worldwide in Over 142 countries! If you have a layover at the airport, you can page "Friends of Jimmy K." & will be met by fellow recovering addicts! This is Extremely helpful if you're having cravings or need someone to talk with who understands. NA has helped Over a Million people! For every person in recovery, it affects 40 other people!
