This newly-forming book club is open to anyone curious about neurodiversity, no matter if you identify as neurodivergent or not. We'll have some light refreshments, and a casual discussion of the book with some guiding questions available to support the conversation as needed. Attendees will have the opportunity to enter into a giveaway for the book we'll read for the next meeting in early December!
