Want to join a book club, but don't want the pressure of reading a particular book and pretending you liked it? Then do we have the club for you! Join us for our No Pressure Book Club. Think of it as a gathering with other book centric folx to chat about books, any books, the one you're reading, one you did read, or even one you'd like to.

This group offers a safe and nurturing space where survivors, current battlers and their loved ones can openly discuss their experiences, challenges, and triumphs. Whether sharing personal stories, offering advice, or seeking guidance, the group provides a platform for survivors and their support networks to connect, learn from one another, and find solace in knowing they are not alone.

instructions to prepare for
5:00 - 6:00 social with SAPD SAFFE Officers
There is a special officer in each neighborhood called a “San Antonio Fear Free Environment (SAFFE)” Officer.
When you have a situation and need help to prevent a crime, the SAFFE Officer is able to assist.
San Antonio Police Department encourages Deaf residents to invite their own SAFFE Officers to attend the November 12 social with them and spend the hour getting to know each other.

There are 2 ways you can invite the SAFFE Officer in your area to participate:
1. Invite the SAFFE Officer yourself
Look up the officer’s contact information at https://www.sa.gov/Directory/Departments/SAPD/About/Substations/Substation-Lookup

2. Ask Rachel to invite your SAFFE Officer. To do this she will need either your street address or the street name and block number. Please send your name and address by November 1 to worldvisitor@rocketmail.com

You may also invite the SAFFE Officer for the area where you work or attend school.

Please arrive any time after 4 p.m. and stay until the building closes at 7:45. Let’s get to know each other and be safer together.

All Bexar Deaf Club meetings are open to the public free of admission. We appreciate the support of Bexar County Small Business & Entrepreneurship Department who provides a secure place for us to meet!
