[close] Our theme for 2026 is Connection. Each month, we will be recommending a novel or a collection of poetry for our community to read together. Upcoming reads will be released on our website (finding-good.org) or Instagram (@finding__good with two underscores) every four months. At the end of each month, we will be hosting an in-person meeting to discuss our thoughts. In certain instances, those who are unable to join in person may also be given the opportunity to join the meeting virtually, although this is not guaranteed.
