AFS strives to meet these goals through:



Educational efforts, such as publishing books, calendars and informational pamphlets, participating in debates, speaking on radio and television, distributing press releases, workshops, offering informative and topical speakers



Social events, including member meetings, social outings and community outreach



Activism, including letters to the editors, letter-writing campaigns to elected members of office, demonstrations, information distribution via our newsletter and web site, and educational workshops



AFS is a member organization, and membership is open to anyone who supports and agrees with our stated purposes. We are not strident about promoting atheism, secular humanism, or what labels you may choose to describe yourself with, but we do ask you to be in general support of our stated purposes. We try to balance activism with member activities.
