NCCA CREDO
We believe
... that alcoholism is an addictive disease of body, mind, and spirit
that damages the lives of many lay people, clergy, and religious.
... that alcoholism is a treatable disease. Extensive experience indicates
that persons afflicted with this disease are usually blind to the developing
symptoms in themselves and rarely are capable of effective self-help.
... that alcoholism is a family disease. As such,
its solution rests on the whole family of God.
... that education is necessary for understanding the disease of alcoholism
and for making help available to those who suffer from this disease,
including their families and their communities.
