Who We Are

We are Gulf Coast Humanists, an official chapter of the American Humanist Association. As a secular community, we offer a vibrant, compassionate alternative to religion in South Mississippi.

We also mobilize to support the most vulnerable populations in our area.

You can learn about our values here, and you can join our upcoming events here.

We are a member of Mississippi Gulf Coast Mutual Aid Collective, and we are a registered 501(c)(3) organization.
