Ethical Culture & Humanism |
|
 The Ethical Humanist Society of Chicago is Ethical Culture's outpost in Chicago. Founded in 1882, Chicago's "Ethical Society" was the second Ethical Society to be formed. It is a member of the American Ethical Union and a chapter of the American Humanist Association.
Ethical Culture sees itself as an ethical, educational, and religious movement. Ethical Culture is premised on the idea that honoring and living in accordance with ethical principles is central to what it takes to live meaningful and fulfilling lives, and to creating a world that is good for all. Practitioners of Ethical Culture focus on supporting one another in becoming better people, and on doing good in the world.
