Next Chapter Book Club of Lincoln

Next Chapter Book Club of Lincoln A book club for individuals with IDD/DD that gathers weekly or bi-weekly for one-hour in a public establishment to read aloud and discuss a book!

Members and volunteers are welcome! We offer community-based book clubs for adolescents and adults with Down syndrome, autism, cerebral palsy and other intellectual and developmental disabilities. Our members (including some who cannot read) love books for the same reasons most people do. They enjoy being transported to different worlds where they meet interesting characters and learn about exciting new things. Taking that journey with a group of friends makes it even more delightful and fun. A growing number of organizations, including libraries, social service agencies and parent groups – often working in collaboration with each other – are joining our Affiliate network and launching the low-cost / high-impact NCBC model in their communities. They recognize that Next Chapter Book Club is a simple premise with profound implications. With more than 2,000 members attending 300 clubs all over the United States, Canada, Germany, and Rwanda. Next Chapter Book Club is the largest community-based book club program of its kind in the world. We hope to be in every county and public library in America by 2026.
