"To
Thine Own Self Be True"
CO-DEPENDENTS
ANONYMOUS is a fellowship of men and women whose common purpose is to
develop healthy relationships. The only requirement for membership is a
desire for healthy and loving relationships.
We
rely on the Twelve Steps and Twelve Traditions for knowledge and wisdom.
These are the principles of our program and guides to developing honest
and fulfilling relationships.
Through
applying the Twelve Steps and principles in CoDA to our daily life and
relationships, both present and past, we can experience a new freedom from
our self-defeating lifestyles and realize a new joy, acceptance and
serenity in our lives.
No
matter how traumatic our past or despairing our present may seem, there is
hope for a new day in the program of Co-Dependents Anonymous. No longer do
we need to rely on others as a power greater than ourselves. May we
instead find here a new strength within to be that which God intended -
Precious and Free!
At NorCal CoDA, our purpose is to
provide an effective communication network between NorCal CoDA Communities and
CoDA
World Fellowship.
We are volunteers of our "Regional Intergroup" serving our
CoDA
members, their Home Groups, and local CoDA Communities in 48 counties in Northern
California: <see NorCal CoDA
