Affiliated Local Groups
The following groups are participating in the Council for Secular Humanism’s newly revamped Affiliated Local Groups program. Please contact the group to learn more about meetings and events in your area.
Where’s My Group?
This newly-updated list includes only groups that provided new information to the Council for Secular Humanism in response to a recent questionnaire. All groups listed on our 2007 archive list were mailed a questionnaire, but if your group’s address has changed recently you may not have received it. If you believe your group was omitted in error—or if you would like to form a new affiliation—please click here.
For convenience this list also includes Center for
Inquiry locations in North America. The Center for Inquiry is a supporting
organization of the Council for Secular Humanism. Centers offer varied local
programming of interest to secular humanist, skeptics, and other advocates
of reason and the scientific method.
