Affirming support for 2SLGBTQ+ people navigating substance use.
You don’t have to have everything figured out to be here. We’re building an LGBTQ+ affirming recovery community rooted in care, dignity, and belonging.
A recovery community built with and for 2SLGBTQ+ people
Rainbow Recovery is a 2SLGBTQ+ affirming recovery community created to support people navigating substance use with dignity, care, and respect. We center lived experience, shared understanding, and connection, recognizing that healing looks different for everyone and doesn’t follow a single path.
Whether you’re exploring support for yourself or someone you care about, you don’t have to arrive with clarity, certainty, or answers. We believe care should meet people where they are, without judgment or pressure.
CGE is currently building toward full program launch while offering community connection and engagement opportunities. We’re building thoughtfully and responsibly, with care for both our community and the people we serve,
What support looks like here
Support at CGE is built to be flexible, affirming, and grounded in real-life experience. We recognize that people come to care with different needs, identities, and levels of readiness — and that support should adapt, not demand.
