What we’re about
We are a friendly group focused on ethical living, community connection, and bringing out the best in people. We explore together what it means to live ethically as individuals, in relationships, and in the larger world. Ethical Culture was founded in 1876 as an alternative to traditional religion. The focus is on human lives and relationships, rather than theology and ritual. Our core belief is in the inherent worth and dignity of each individual. Moved by what we see in the surrounding community, we collaborate to deliver meals and supplies to the Grace Solutions shelter for unhoused individuals in San Jose. We are a listening, caring, mutually supportive, and fun-loving fellowship. Learn more at our website, and pick an event here on our Meetup page to give us a try. Welcome!

See all- Sunday Spotlight: Next Door Solutions to Domestic ViolenceNeutra House , Los Altos, CA
Jonathan Darr, Director of Development for Next Door Solutions to Domestic Violence will be our speaker. Next Door Solutions to Domestic Violence (NDS) is the only stand-alone domestic violence agency in Santa Clara County and the largest provider of comprehensive services for survivors in the region. NDS offers a wide range of survivor-centered services including crisis response, shelter and housing support, legal advocacy, counseling, support groups, and systems navigation. All services are provided free of charge and with a deep commitment to equity and inclusion.
This gathering is part of our monthly 'Spotlight' series, where we host speakers who broaden our ethical outlook on the world. We invite discussion, and we mix in a little live music, light refreshment, and community sharing. The program runs from 11 am to 12:30 pm, and all are welcome to linger afterward, share thoughts, and socialize. Better yet, stay for lunch! -- which we'll enjoy together on the patio from 12:45 to 1:45. Bring something to share if you like, vegan appreciated.
