Episode Synopsis "Boyd and Chris - Part 1"

The first of a number of planned interviews with Boyd and Chris, two researchers with a particular interest in what they call "mutual aid societies" in the recovery field, which includes twelve step fellowships such as NA. In this episode, we explore in some depth the origins of NA going back to the 1940s and 1950s. We discuss the Addicts Anonymous fellowship in Lexington, Kentucky and its relationship to Narcotics Anonymous, both in New York in 1949 and Los Angeles in 1953.
