Begun in 1876 by Felix Adler, Ethical Culture places ethics at the center of our shared human life. It offers people the support of a community of individuals all wishing to live closer to their ideals.

Diverse in many ways, we share a deep respect for the worth of every person, a desire to build social justice, and a commitment to building ethical relationships. As an educational, religious and social justice movement, Ethical Culture stands out as a common sense alternative to the extremism and intolerance of contemporary times. Sometimes called a religion for people who don’t like religions, we encourage free thought and compassion in all our associations.
