Every year since 1989, Al-Anon Adult Children in Illinois have hosted a weekend Workshop and Festival to aid in our recovery. It is intended to be a recovery weekend for all Adult Children and the people who love them. This includes all Al-Anon members and anyone else in recovery from the effects of growing up or living in an alcoholic home. Many members of other 12-Step groups such as AA, ACOA, OA, and CODA also find this event helpful to their own programs. Each year, recovering friends come from all over the country to experience the weekend. We invite you to visit the rest of our website, and to join us for the upcoming Workshop and Festival.
 
 
 

"We Keep rowing(moving) forward"

'Many Voices; One Dream'

 

 

The Theme for the 2012 Workshop and Festival is 

" Many Voices, One Journey"

based on Al-Anon's recent book by the same name.

For adult children of alcoholics, seeing how far we have come is a major challenge in life. Often issues of inadequacy, perfectionism, fears of all sorts, depression and anxiety, and dread of commitment leave us feeling as though we have made little progress in recovery. This weekend is designed to help adult children joyfully share our experiences, strengths, and hopes along that road, no matter how long we have been on our journeys.
