The Twelve Traditions of Kratom Anonymousâ„
1. Our common welfare should come first; personal recovery depends on K.A. unity.
​
2. For our group purpose, there is but one ultimate authority—a loving Higher Power as expressed in our group conscience. Our leaders are trusted servants; they do not govern.
​
3. The only requirement for membership is a desire to stop using kratom. The fellowship is a sanctuary focused primarily on recovery.
​
4. Each group should be autonomous, except in matters affecting other groups or K.A. as a whole. Groups may choose to engage in local outreach or remain private, provided they honor the fellowship's reputation.
​
5. Our fellowship has but one primary purpose: to carry the message of recovery to those seeking freedom from kratom. Each group has one primary purpose: to carry the message of recovery to those seeking freedom from kratom.
​
6. K.A. will not officially join, fund, or promote outside enterprises or brands. However, K.A. may cooperate with other trusted recovery organizations.
​
7. K.A. groups should be fully self-supporting through voluntary contributions, ensuring our autonomy and purity of purpose.
​
8. K.A. should remain non-professional, though service positions may be compensated when appropriate.
​
9. As such, K.A. ought never be formally organized; however, service boards or committees may be formed to serve the fellowship.
​
10. K.A. has no opinion on outside issues, but we do have a voice on the reality of kratom addiction.
​
11. K.A. membership is primarily based on attraction, but trusted servants may engage in public outreach to share the message of hope and recovery.
​
12. Anonymity is the spiritual foundation of all our traditions, ever reminding us to place principles before personalities.
