Next Slow Read Book Club: Oct 2025 - Jan 2026
Join the next Slow Read Book Club as we take our time with What It Takes to Heal by Prentis Hemphill—a book that invites us to confront trauma, reckon with systemic harm, and explore what healing truly requires for ourselves and our communities.
Unlike traditional book clubs, the Slow Read Book Club dismantles the urgency of “keeping up” and instead encourages us to move through the text with patience, reflection, and practice. Over 3-4 months, we’ll gather virtually on a monthly basis to discuss this book and what it actually takes to heal in our work as nonprofit and social impact professionals. Each book ending culminates with an in-person event in San Diego, CA. That date is TBD.
Ready to embrace slowness and build a culture of care? Sign up today.
