Elmhurst
A MenLiving chapter: facilitator-led, in person, men sitting in a circle and talking honestly. Open to every man and free — come once and decide nothing.
Next gatherings
Every chapter holds one consistent monthly meeting. Each gathering lists its own location — venues move around.

What a chapter is
A chapter is a group of men who meet near each other, month after month — the same practice as an online circle, in a room. A facilitator holds the meeting: listening, no fixing, speaking from your own experience.
Chapters are all-access. Every meeting is open to any man, at no cost, with nothing to sign up for. The Elmhurst chapter meets third Wednesday of the month, 6:30 PM.
Between meetings
When a man leaves the meeting, the conversation can continue: each chapter has its own space in the MenLiving community — updates, photos, and the men themselves. The way in is the meeting: come sit in the circle, and the chapter lead invites you in afterward. Some men only ever come in person — that’s fine too.
Other chapters
Same practice, different rooms. Online circles meet most days of the week too.
Ready when you are
Most are free, most weeks of the year. You can listen the whole time and nobody will ask you why.
