WellRead: A Community Conversation Book Club hosted by WellStone
Wednesday, September 13, 2023 6 p.m. – 7:30 p.m.
We're providing a forum for thought-provoking, stigma-ending, and hope-creating conversation.
WellRead's first book selection is Reasons to Stay Alive by Matt Haig. The memoir is an account of Haig’s mental illness and near suicide attempt. For the month of September, we are highlighting the importance of suicide prevention because of National Suicide Prevention Month. Note: Reading the selected work beforehand is encouraged, but not required.
Kenny Anderson, the City of Huntsville's Director of the Office of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion, will serve as moderator.
