Our mission is to create a thriving local community that promotes and acts upon the ideals of humanism.
We offer educational programs, discussion groups, social events, and community involvement for our members and for the general public. We are based in Portland, Oregon and we serve the Greater Portland area.
Every Sunday morning we meet over Zoom. At these meetings, presentations are given by various speakers on topics in four broad areas: Human Well-Being, Science and Reason, Secularism, and Humanities/Culture/Morality.
In addition to our Sunday morning programs, we offer social and intellectual activities throughout the week, all over the Portland Metro area.
HGP is a friendly organization. We welcome people who share our values in learning, growing, and enjoying the company of others in a supportive environment. We welcome atheists, agnostics, truth-seekers, skeptics, and all those who value freedom from dogma.
We encourage you to visit any of our events. Membership in HGP is open to anyone who wishes to support humanist ideals.
