Humanist Community of Ventura County
Thousand Oaks, CA
Mission Statement: The Humanist Community of Ventura County is a welcoming social environment offering fellowship for those committed to secular values and community service.
Humanism is a progressive lifestance that, without supernaturalism, affirms our ability and responsibility to lead meaningful, ethical lives capable of adding to the greater good of humanity. Essentially, we're your friendly neighborhood non-believers who are here to show the world that we're āgood without god.ā While others have churches, temples, and mosques; there are no similar groups for people who take a more pragmatic non-supernatural approach to dealing with life's dilemmas. More than anything, we provide support and a safe, positive sense of community among local Ventura County Humanists!
We meet for discussion groups monthly, as well as social gatherings, outdoor activities, and community service projects. We welcome people in all stages of life; singles, couples, families, and senior citizens. If you identify as atheist, agnostic, secular, skeptic, humanist, or even Jeffersonian deist and looking for like-minded folks, you have found a your people.
We are a Charter Chapter of the American Humanist Association, and the international charity Foundation Beyond Belief. We have nonprofit 501(c)(3) status, so donations are tax deductible and we participate in community events as such. We support and network with other like minded groups in our region, state and nation. See our website for more information. www.HCoVC.com .
All are welcome; we hope to meet you soon!

š± This group is for those living in Conejo Valley and looking for new hiking, walking & exercise buddies, to keep active.

I welcome all who can commit (no flakes please) to whatever meetup exercise activity interests you the most in this group!
