I am here for Networking

About Me

Humanism is a progressive philosophy of life that, without theism and other supernatural beliefs, affirms our ability and responsibility to lead ethical lives of personal fulfillment that aspire to the greater good of humanity.
The mission of the American Humanist Association is to to be a clear, democratic voice for Humanism in the United States, to increase public awareness and acceptance of Humanism, to establish, protect and promote the position of Humanists in our society, and to develop and advance Humanist thought and action.
We are accomplishing this through our network of over 120 local groups, our continued presence in the news media, our various publications -- including the award winning Humanist magazine -- and our lobbying and coalition work in Washington D.C.
Projects of the American Humanist Association include the Appignani Humanist Legal Center , the Kochhar Humanist Education Center and the Humanist Society .
