Planada, California NA Meetings

Planada is a census-designated place in Merced County, California. There are NA meetings in Planada that are designed to help those with a substance use disorder in this small community. NA meetings are often held in an open facility. The meeting itself has no set duration, and goes on until the group has fully shared what they are struggling with. Generally, NA meetings will begin with an introduction of the meeting, and end with a prayer. However, the meetings are unaffiliated with any religion, although some people may replace “God” with “higher power.” An online NA meeting is also a good option for people who live far away from in-person meetings. People can choose to attend the meetings that are most convenient for them. When an NA meeting is conducted online, it is important to note that the format of the meetings varies. A video link is often used to hold the meetings. Sometimes, voice and text messaging are also used. There are two types of virtual meetings: open virtual meetings, and closed virtual meetings.
