Chapter Chat is a read-together group for folks 17 and older who have intellectual disabilities. This group will meet on a weekly basis for the time it takes to read a book together aloud. We will choose our book selections as a group. Ideally, you will be able to attend meetings every week until we finish the book.

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: instead, we read together to socialize and share the experience of reading a good book.

This group is limited to ten participants.  Please call Riverton Library at 856-829-2476 for more information.

This event will be on Monday, July 22nd from 4 pm to 5 pm.

All are welcome from beginners to seasoned players, just stop by the library every Thursday afternoon for a game.
