Group Service REPRESENTATIVE

What is a GSR?

The GSR is an active member of an NA group and its representative at local service meetings. Groups and their members rely on their GSRs to stay connected with other groups in an NA community and to the rest of NA. As one member put it: “For most newcomers in a meeting, NA will be as big or as small as the information the GSR provides to the group.”

The Second Concept states that NA groups have “final responsibility and authority” for the service bodies they create. An active and prepared GSR makes it possible for this principle to be a reality.
