Fellowship Development 

The primary objective of "APF Fellowship Development" (FD) is to support the growth, unity, stability, and recovery of NA Communities within the Asia Pacific Zone.

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

 

APF’s Fellowship Development team works on strengthening member communities by making them aware of the support and resources available helping them to meet NA’s primary purpose of carrying the NA message.
