Home Group Ends

Blue Ridge Area Narcotics Anonymous

Blue Ridge Area
Narcotics Anonymous

The BRANA Home Group A Simple Way has disbanded and the Narcotics Anonymous meeting at Bethany United Methodist Church in Weyers Cave is cancelled.

It’s sad to see a home group fold; however, we will continue to carry the message of recovery in the Blue Ridge Area.

The meeting schedule on this Website reflects this change and the BRANA Meeting List, which you can download from the link at right, has been updated.

A new meeting list will be printed next month and will be available at the May 9th Blue Ridge Area Service Committee meeting.
