About us
SASH is a chapter of the Washington Area Secular Humanists. Become a Member to support our activities.
Secular Humanists are distinguished by an emphasis on critical thinking and scientific methods of knowing, promotion of separation of church and state, and a commitment to the pursuit of humanist goals outside of religious frameworks. We are a group for non-theists, atheists, agnostics, doubters, free-thinkers, rationalists, skeptics and other like-minded individuals who are interested in exploring what it means to be "Good Without God". The main focus of the group is to build a sense of community for the "Nones" in the Shenandoah region through discussion groups, lectures, social activities and family-friendly events, as well as promoting a spirit of volunteerism and giving back to the community. There's no cost to join. Most of our events are free.
We are proud to be a Chapter of the Washington Area Secular Humanists (WASH). For more information on our parent organization visit our website at wash.org/sash

Rebranding humanism
·OnlineOnlineThe American Humanist Association has recently finished a rebranding project, aimed at increasing participation in AHA and identifying and encouraging new (and younger) nonreligious individuals to join and use AHA resources. At our SASH meeting, we'll discuss their interesting research and decisions and consider how they might influence our SASH organization.
In addition, we'll learn about AHA's American Empathy Project, which is very interesting and encompassing. We'll talk about a potential local role for SASH in that project.
