- 1. Our common welfare should come first; personal recovery depends upon PAA unity.
- 2. For our group purpose there is but one ultimate authority—a loving God as He may express Himself in our group conscience. Our leaders are but trusted servants; they do not govern.
- 3. The only requirement for PAA membership is a desire to stop using pornography in all of its forms.
- 4. Each group should be autonomous except in matters affecting other groups or PAA as a whole.
- 5. Each group has but one primary purpose—to carry its message to the pornography addict who still suffers.
- 6. A PAA group ought never endorse, finance, or lend the PAA name to any related facility or outside enterprise, lest problems of money, property, and prestige divert us from our primary purpose.
- 7. Every PAA group ought to be fully self-supporting, declining outside contributions.
- 8. Porn Addicts Anonymous should remain forever nonprofessional, but our service centers may employ special workers.
- 9. PAA, as such, ought never be organized; but we may create service boards or committees directly responsible to those they serve.
- 10. Porn Addicts Anonymous has no opinion on outside issues; hence the PAA name ought never be drawn into public controversy.
- 11. Our public relations policy is based on attraction rather than promotion; we need always maintain personal anonymity at all levels of public media, including press, radio, TV and films.
- 12. Anonymity is the spiritual foundation of all our Traditions, ever reminding us to place principles before personalities.
