Chapter Chat Book Club

Chapter Chat is a read-together group for folks 17 and older with intellectual disabilities. The group meets every week to read a novel together.

At the event, we will take turns reading aloud from the book. You can read aloud as much or as little as you like, or you can just listen! This is not a reading instruction class: we read together to socialize and share the experience of reading a good book.

This group is limited to ten participants. Registration is required.

The Chapter Chat Book Club will meet on:

  • December 8th from 2:30 to 3:30 pm, register here
  • December 15th from 2:30 to 3:30 pm, register here
