SUMMARY:Dungeons and Dragons
DESCRIPTION:Ages 10-17 join our Dungeon Master Chris Barton for one-off 
 games of Dungeons & Dragons. \n\nWe will start a new D&D adventure at each 
 meeting and complete it on the same day. Each person must register 
 individually with a different email address. \n\n \n\nAll about the 
 presenter\, Chris Barton:  I have been playing and running TableTop Role 
 Playing Games since I was in 7th grade\, and continued throughout my life.  
 I have played and run many systems\, including but not limited to Dungeons 
 and Dragons\, Kids on Bikes\, Branch Riders\, and Pugmire.  In 2017\, when 
 at the Pax Unplugged convention\, I found out that Educational and 
 Therapeutic gaming was occurring.  In 2018 and 2019\, I was trained with 
 The Bodhana Group in York\, PA\, in the Therapeutic Application of Tabletop 
 Role-Playing and in Creative and Implementing Therapeutically Driven 
 Content for Narrative Role-Playing Game\, respectively.  These skills 
 blended well with my BA in Psychology and MS in Instructional Design\, as 
 well as my experience when I worked for Hope Enterprises with autistic and 
 ID (intellectually disabled) individuals.  I started to volunteer for the 
 Bodhana group as a GM (Game Master) and have now been hired by them to run 
 two games a week over Zoom.  I have also worked as a Game Master for Hope 
 Enterprises\, Goodwill of NEPA\, Autism Society of NEPA\, and Bucknell.  I 
 continue to work with a variety of age groups and diverse 
 individuals.\n\nIf you have any questions\, please get in touch with Nicole 
 Rader\, Programming & Youth Services Director at nrader@jvbrown.edu or call
