WELCOME
If you are not living too well with drugs, alcohol or other compulsive behaviours, you may live better without them.
Rainbow Recovery Club
Rainbow Recovery Club is an incorporated association dedicated to managing the Rainbow Recovery Room and cultivating a vibrant LGBTQI+ recovery community. Through lively Mardi Gras celebrations and annual retreats, we create supportive spaces where anyone can connect, heal, and thrive together.
12- Step Fellowship
A 12‑step program fellowship is a peer‑run recovery system that guides members through twelve progressive actions—from admitting powerlessness to helping others—using honesty, a broad notion of a higher power, and regular fellowship for lasting sobriety.

"Rainbow Recovery Club has been my saving grace. I truly believed I only had two options as an alcoholic and addict: prison in one hand and death in the other. Then something shifted, and I found my way into the rooms of recovery. Through Rainbow, I have learned to stand in the truth of who I am as a proud trans woman, with honesty, courage, and strength. Just for today, I am grateful to be alive, present, and walking this journey with others in recovery"

"The Rainbow Recovery Club saved my life. After alcohol nearly took my life, I didn't know how I would live without alcohol or drugs, especially as part of the gay community. This room connected me to other gay alcoholics who took me under their wing and showed me how to live a full life without booze and drugs. I would never have gotten to where I am (3 years sober) or have the amazing life I do now without them and this room."

“I walked into the Rainbow Recovery Club in 2018 feeling broken, lost and defeated. I was welcomed with kindness, love and no judgment — something that felt unfamiliar at first, but quickly became the foundation of my recovery.
Rainbow Recovery Club showed me that real connection and friendship existed beyond the LGBTQ+ party scene. Today, I am 7 years sober, living with a peace I never thought possible, and forever grateful for the love, laughter and support I found there.”

“The Rainbow Recovery Club community has enabled me to connect with other fellows in recovery. I have been in 3 Mardi Gras parades and had a great time. It truely has changed my life.”

“In April 2022, I reached out to The Rainbow Recovery Club feeling lost and unsure where to turn. I was met with immediate kindness, support, and links to local meetings that helped me begin my sobriety journey.
From my very first meeting, I felt welcomed, safe, and accepted enough to be honest about my addictions. Since then, I have stayed sober, and I truly believe that without the support of the RRC, I wouldn’t be here today.”
