What is The Humanist Community?

We seek to provide a Humanist equivalent of what religions have: community, fellowship, resources for social action, fun and a good place to learn and grow in the spirit of Humanism.

What does the Humanist Community do?

Small Groups and Forums

Weekly Forums on Sunday, during the regular Sunday program at Tresidder Student Union at Stanford or in the Clubhouse of Old Union, right next door. The Sunday program includes small groups. You can visit a map of the Stanford Campus to help you find Tresidder.

The Forums are followed by eating outside the CoHo and hanging out. We have a Newcomers table for those who want to find out more about living life as a Humanist, and what folks in the Humanist Community are like. It is the one with the flowers.

Sunday Afternoon Hikes

There are hikes going out at about 1:30 pm that carpool from Tresidder. There are short and long ones, perfect for exploring the hills around Stanford, and taking a break from studying or work.

Upcoming Events

We have potlucks, parties, celebrations, and social action events. There is a calendar of activities for the upcoming month.

Children's Programs

Gradeschool children meet at the HC office once a month for now at 10:15 am. Highscholers attend the Forums. Call Catherine Bishop at (408)737-9562.

Potlucks, social action, creativity/art group, Darwin Day, Toastmasters, and more!

For now, if you want more info, call Bill Jacobsen at (650) 969-3630. He is the Executive Director as well as part of the campus Ministries at Stanford.

The Humanist Community does weddings, naming ceremonies and memorials.

Humanist Celebrants have the legal authority to marry people, and know many excellent resources for celebrations and ceremonies.
