Rocky Mountain Region Nar-Anon Family Groups (RMR NFG) is an organization of trusted servants with the intent and purpose of providing services to the fellowship it serves. It is an unconventional organization in that its leadership is meant to serve, never to govern or become the seat of wealth or power. The representative leadership is elected by the fellowship to limited terms, and the ultimate authority and responsibility for the entire fellowship are retained by the groups. The fellowship adheres to the 12 Steps, 12 Traditions and 12 Concepts of Nar-Anon Family Groups not as rules of law, but as guiding principles that maintain consistency throughout the worldwide fellowship. 

The fellowship responsible for the RMR NFG resides in the state of Colorado in the United States. All voting representation from respective groups and elected trusted servants are members of registered Nar-Anon Family Groups residing within the geographic boundaries so defined, which hereafter shall be referred to as the Rocky Mountain Region (RMR)

The RMR NFG Bylaws and Guidelines guide the region in organizing its services, including but not limited to voting and election procedures, the function of Assemblies, developing and maintaining subcommittees, and hosting state and regional conventions. As a reference, members may also look to the Nar-Anon Guide to Local Services (GLS) or Guide to World Services (GWS), published by Nar-Anon Family Group Headquarters, Inc. The GLS and GWS provide information about the principles and practices throughout the worldwide fellowship of Nar-Anon, while the RMR NFG Bylaws and Guidelines clarify the region’s specific procedures adopted through years of experience.
