More than 1,900 people attended our educational events, town halls, virtual panels, and our virtual annual conference in 2024.

We brought people together to talk about the violent erosion of transgender rights, the spread of Christian supremacist laws under the guise of parental control, and the existential threat of unchecked technological power. We gave humanists tools to understand the rise of conspiracy culture, how to push back against food insecurity and profit-first politics, and how to build community from compassion, not coercion. We addressed the anger that lingers from religious trauma and the exhaustion that accumulates when every day feels like a fight. We hosted nationally recognized thought leaders like Greg Epstein and Anthony Pinn, offered practical tools for secular parents, and created brave spaces for grief, anger, and healing.

And then we taught people how to act.

At the Secular Student Alliance conference in Little Rock, we ran workshops showing young organizers that lobbying isn’t something you need permission to do—it’s something you can start tomorrow. Through our Lobbying 101 trainings, we equipped over 200 attendees with the fundamentals of direct action. Our summer intern didn’t file papers—they met with Congressional offices, created our legislative scorecard, and booked lobbying appointments on their own. Humanists didn’t just learn—they led.

We don’t do education for the sake of optics. We do it to raise the floor on what this movement expects of itself. In 2024 we equipped people to act—and they did.
