What we’re about
Our mission is to advance humanism, an ethical and life-affirming philosophy free of belief in any gods and other supernatural forces. Advocating for equality for non-theists and a society guided by reason, empathy, and our growing knowledge of the world, the Humanist Forum promotes a worldview that encourages individuals to live informed and meaningful lives that aspire to the greater good.
Our discussion topics include issues relating to morality and ethics, human development, evolution, the nature of the universe, love, the capacities of the brain, free will, the latest scientific research and discoveries, and other topics of mutual interest. Our events are open to the public.
We are a non-profit 501(c)(3) chapter of the American Humanist Association.

The public is invited to a free screening of the new documentary, Preconceived, which traces the negative reproductive health effects of the rise of “crisis pregnancy centers” and the shifting of public health funds to private and religious agencies.

We’ll conclude with action steps for better reproductive health outcomes in our community. For questions about the event: aprillidinsky@gmail.com
