Back issues of "A New Leaf" Newsletter are available here. The purpose of "A New Leaf", the monthly Marijuana Anonymous newsletter, is to carry the message of recovery from marijuana addiction. It is through the written experiences of recovering addicts and their stories that we may find experience, strength and hope. Articles submitted should reflect recovery, unity and service.
Sometimes people gather on the MAWPM phone line at 4:20 EST for fellowship. Stop by if you’d like for unstructured conversation. If you call in at 4:20, please stay on the line for at least 5 minutes to increase the chance of connecting with others.
MA World Services is developing a pen pal program that will involve MA members, with a year or more sobriety, being paired with an inmate who needs to share experience, strength & hope. For more information please contact hospitalsandinstitutions@marijuana-anonymous.org.
At last contact, the pen pal program was struggling with accessing facilities, so if this is something you would like to help out with, please email the H&I committee to see what they need.
Members of the World Services Correspondence committee are often "the face of MA", as we are responding to phone and email inquiries on a daily basis. We are looking for a few good listeners, especially those who have the time to help take live calls. If you have at least 6 months clean and sober, a working knowledge of the 12 Steps and 12 Traditions, are comfortable sharing your experience, strength and hope with others, and want to serve newcomers to strengthen your own recovery, please send a letter of interest to office@marijuana-anonymous.org.
MarAnon Family Groups offer "support and hope for those affected by another's marijuana use". "Its foundation is the Twelve Steps, adapted from Marijuana Anonymous, which can be a powerful, life-changing tool. We come together to work the steps and offer hope, comfort and support for other members. We are not a religious group, instead we use the steps as a path of self-discovery and personal change." They offer meetings 7 days a week.
You can find MarAnon through this website: mar-anon.com. Mar-anon is a separate organization from Marijuana Anonymous.
