Coral Springs, Florida NA Meetings

How NA Works in Coral Springs

Narcotics Anonymous (NA) is a fellowship of your peers who are recovering from drug use. NA does not charge dues or fees and they don’t require a referral. The only membership requirement is a desire to stop using.

Members run the NA groups and the service structure is organized by area rather than by county. Coral Springs falls under the Gold Coast Area of the South Florida Region. This service area also includes Coconut Creek, Tamarac, Sunrise, Pompano Beach and Fort Lauderdale.

• NA area: Gold Coast Area of South Florida Region. The area helpline is (888) 524-1777.
• Meeting formats in the city: Available meetings include open meetings, discussion meetings, and groups that read and work through the Basic Text and the steps.

Meetings In and Around Coral Springs

Coral Springs is in the northwest corner of Broward County. It is a planned city built inland from the coast. The civic cluster and the Coral Springs Center for the Arts are several miles west of the older beachside towns.

This positioning shapes the finder’s results. Search results are by proximity rather than city limits. This means the results show meetings near the address or ZIP code you enter and can include groups listed under neighboring communities.

Parkland is directly north and Coconut Creek directly east.  Both are a few minutes from the city line. Margate and Tamarac lie south and east and have far more meetings than Coral Springs does. Sunrise is further south along University Drive and boasts a full meeting schedule.

Out on the coast, east along Sample Road, Pompano Beach has one of the widest ranges of meeting types in Broward County. Widening your search radius includes these meetings. The state directory covers NA meetings across Florida if you are traveling or looking outside the county.

There is a short list of meetings in the Coral Springs city limits. Formats include open meetings where anyone can attend, discussion meetings where members talk through a topic raised at the table and groups built around the Basic Text and step study.

The range of meeting options in the surrounding cities is wider and the finder is the place to identify meetings that meet your needs. The Gold Coast Area helpline at (888) 524-1777 is the NA contact point for Coral Springs and the surrounding communities. It is also helpful to read what to know before a first NA meeting before you walk in.

Substance Use in Broward County

Drug deaths have been falling nationally and in Florida. The steepest decline has been in deaths triggered by opioids. Two figures are important in the local picture.

• 69,973 estimated drug overdose deaths in the United States in 2025, down almost 14% from the 81,313 estimated in 2024. This is the third consecutive annual decline.  
• 42% fewer deaths caused by opioids in Florida from January through June 2025 than in the same months of 2024. Deaths triggered by fentanyl are down 46% while the total number of deaths related to drugs is down 19%. Fentanyl caused more deaths than any other drug reported.

These are national and state figures. Broward County did not publish overdose data for the city or county in 2025. Florida’s 2025 interim report gives percentage changes rather than counts.

Broward County’s composition is unusual. Alongside fentanyl, cocaine accounts for a large share of the deaths. This is a larger number of deaths from cocaine than in most US counties. The Fort Lauderdale page sets out the county figures by substance for 2024.

Getting Treatment In and Around Coral Springs

Deciding the kind of help to look for is often harder than finding it. It helps to know what the levels of care actually are. Treatment for drug use typically requires care across several levels. It may begin with medically supervised withdrawal management and move on to residential treatment, intensive outpatient and standard outpatient counseling, and longer-term recovery support. The level you need depends on the drug you are using, for how long, and other medical conditions.

Medication is the clinical standard of care and supported by many years of research. Methadone, buprenorphine and naltrexone reduce cravings and withdrawal risk. Taking medications and NA meetings are complementary and not mutually exclusive. Your clinician can explain how they can work together in your recovery.

Federally certified opioid treatment programs (OTPs) are the clinics licensed to dispense methadone daily. OTPs operate nearby in Sunrise to the south and Pompano Beach to the east. Buprenorphine can also be prescribed by a primary care physician or an office-based clinic, which is often the faster route to a first appointment.

For medically supervised withdrawal, Broward Addiction Recovery Center is the county-operated program. It runs detoxification 24 hours a day and can be reached at 954-357-4880.

SAMHSA’s FindTreatment.gov lists licensed programs by ZIP code and filters by level of care, payment accepted and medication offered. The SAMHSA National Helpline at 1-800-662-4357 is free, confidential and answered 24 hours a day in English and Spanish. If you are weighing which level of care to ask about, when to consider outpatient treatment and the stages of opiate withdrawal cover the two most popular questions.

Naloxone Access in Broward County

The Florida Department of Health in Broward County gives out free naloxone kits with no appointment needed. The nearest pickup points to Coral Springs are its health centers in Fort Lauderdale and Pompano Beach. There is no county pickup site in Coral Springs.

Florida’s Good Samaritan law is covered by section 893.21 of the Florida Statutes. This law protects a person who seeks medical help in good faith during an overdose from being charged with drug possession or paraphernalia where the evidence came from that call. The same protection covers someone seeking help for their own overdose.

The Fort Lauderdale page provides the county pickup addresses. Our information about how naloxone treats an overdose explains what the medication does and what it does not do.

Questions and Answers About NA Meetings in Coral Springs

Are there NA meetings in Coral Springs?

Yes, Coral Springs has a list of NA groups and it is a short one. The finder on this page shows meetings in Parkland, Coconut Creek, Margate, Tamarac and further out. What is provided is a practical set of options rather than only the groups filed under the city name.

What if there is no NA meeting in Coral Springs today?

When there are no meetings in the results for Coral Springs, widen the search radius. Coral Springs is close to Margate, Tamarac and Coconut Creek, and Pompano Beach and Fort Lauderdale hold the largest schedules in Broward County, all reachable in well under an hour. The Gold Coast Area helpline at (888) 524-1777 can also tell you what is meeting nearby.

Does NA work alongside methadone or buprenorphine?

Yes, many people attend NA while taking medications prescribed for opioid use disorder. Methadone, buprenorphine and naltrexone are the clinical standard of care for opioid use disorder. NA is free peer support. However, these are complementary strategies since they do different jobs and are not alternatives to each other. Groups are autonomous under NA’s traditions, so customs around service positions and sharing vary from one meeting to the next.

How do I get to a meeting without a car?

Broward County Transit serves Coral Springs. The city also operates its own community shuttle routes. It’s worth checking these routes against the meeting location you choose. Since the finder sorts by proximity, it might be easier to go to the closest meeting on a route than the one with the format you would ideally pick. 211 Broward keeps information on local transportation assistance. Getting rides to meetings is something members frequently arrange informally in a county this spread out.

Can a family member attend an NA meeting?

Family members can attend open meetings. These are available in Coral Springs and they welcome family members, partners and friends who want to understand what the program involves.  Nar-Anon Family Groups is a separate fellowship for the families and friends of people with a substance use disorder, and it is worth looking at if you want a room of your own rather than a seat in someone else’s.
