Who This Website Is For
This website is intended primarily for use by members of the Midwest Zonal Forum of Narcotics Anonymous, an administrative body that seeks to coordinate NA service efforts throughout the Midwestern United States. If you are looking for general information about NA, please visit Narcotics Anonymous World Services
The Midwest Zonal Forum was formed at the 1987 World Service Conference of Narcotics Anonymous with the intent of facilitating communication between NA regions in the Midwest.

- helps Regional Delegates prepare for the biannual World Service Conference and learn from each other, former Delegates, and other experience trusted servants
- assists local NA members or communities who have questions about NA service or how to handle challenging situations
- conducts workshops and learning days on various topics in NA service
- sponsors multi-regional events with participation from NA World Services
- serves as a point of contact for public information requests
Who Participates in the MZF?
Membership is open to any interested NA member. Generally, each of the regions above send their Regional Delegate (RD) and alternate (RDA) to meetings of the MZF. In addition, the MZF elects trusted servants; usually, these positions are filled by former Regional Delegates who have experience at the MZF. Regional Delegates are selected by their regions to participate not only in the MZF, but also the World Service Conference. Because of this, the MZF consistently has a core of experienced and highly trusted servants.
