Chicago Roundup is a volunteer-based, nonprofit organization celebrating 12-Step recovery from alcohol and drug addiction within the LGBTQIA+ community.
Chicago Roundup holds many community focused events throughout the year, culminating in our weekend-long gathering of LGBTQIA+’s celebrating recovery. CRU welcomes those interested in finding out what a life of recovery has to offer. At our annual event, we provide thought-provoking panel discussions, engaging speakers, entertainment, and fellowship opportunities that enhance our spiritual, emotional and sober life. It offers the perfect opportunity to meet other recovering people from all over the world and make some wonderful new friendships in the process. This year’s event will be hosted in the heart of North Halsted at the largest LGBTQIA+ Community Center in the Midwest, Chicago’s state-of-the-art Center on Halsted.
2022 dates: August 26-27-28

The Chicago Roundup is grateful for the support of No Matter What Recovery.
No Matter What Recovery is a dual diagnosis treatment provider and a lifeline to wellness for individuals seeking affirming, trauma-informed care across every stage of recovery.
Their team is deeply committed to providing LGBTQ+ affirming treatment while unraveling the complexities of chemsex and sexualized drug use, exploring the impact of family systems, and honoring the transgender experience in recovery. They serve both LGBTQ+ clients and true allies who value culturally competent, clinically-grounded care.
No Matter What Recovery offers outpatient care in the heart of Chicago’s Boystown, near the intersection of Halsted and Belmont.
