What a chapter is

A chapter is a local group of men who meet regularly for facilitated conversation. Participants listen, speak from their own experience, and avoid giving advice or trying to fix others.

Chapter open circles are free and welcome all men. Check each gathering’s listing for location and RSVP details. The Madison chapter meets first Wednesday of the month, 6:30 PM.

The depth pilot. Madison also runs a circle contributors carry on the third Wednesday — the depth pilot. Whether future chapters follow that model is still to be determined. Explore the Expanded Circles

Between meetings

After you attend a chapter gathering, the chapter leader adds you to the chapter’s space in the MenLiving community. There, you can share updates, photos, and conversations between gatherings. You’re also welcome to take part only in person.
