AOF Activities & Events

Camaraderie, community, coffee: Which comes first?

Let's plan how to help Sac-area non-theists feel more like a community. For this, of course, Reason Center is pure gold. But it would also help to get to know other non-believers who live near you. Maybe meet with your secular neighbors for coffee once in a while. How could you get something like that going? What could non-theist coffee klatsches expect to accomplish, what should they avoid? What ground rules should you establish? Let's work out the logistics now.

But before that, we will enjoy a 10- to 15-minute presentation by a local nonprofit that helps sexual assault survivors in the first few hours after the attack. It's a tough topic, but we promise to be as positive as possible.

• Important to know:
