Registration Now Open!
Intake required for new members.
Welcome to the YB&B Readers Club, where we inspire Black and Brown youth to dive into great books and build a strong sense of community!
We’re thrilled to announce that our Fall Kickoff will be on September 7th, and our first session begins on September 19th, 2024!
YB&B members will meet every Thursday at 5:45 PM for in-person sessions.
At YB&B, we captivate the minds of young readers, ages 11-16, by introducing them to culturally rich and engaging literature. Our sessions are designed to boost confidence, enhance social and literacy skills, and foster meaningful discussions. With fun literacy games, interactive activities, and healthy peer interactions, our members grow together in a supportive environment.
