Youth of Ethical Societies (YES)

AEU’s Ethical Education for high school-aged young adults offers greater freedom and self-direction in a safe, respectful, and confidential environment. Teens freely discuss and explore topics that are relevant and important to them while planning activities that allow them to directly engage ethical questions and current issues in the world around them.

While the groups are generally youth-led, an adult advisor is always present to help guide the discussions and projects as needed. Each Fall, youth groups from local Ethical Societies gather together for a Youth of Ethical Societies (YES) Conference.

Teens work together to organize service activities, fundraisers, and opportunities for ethical action. We hope that they’ll find room to think, room to examine and thoughtfully question the assumptions they may have inherited. Together, youth group teens tend to exercise an inspiring capacity to think critically and act ethically.

For details of the Young Adult program in your area, contact your local Ethical Society.

American Ethical Union shared a post.
American Ethical Union

The American Ethical Union has passed a resolution--Defending the Right to Vote--to "stand up for a democracy that protects our values and our constitutional right to cast our vote." The words of the resolution are contained in the graphic as a reminder of the importance of protecting this precious right. You can also read the resolution at aeu.org/resource/2019-defending-the-right-to-vote/. Please do read it.

The resolution cites many concerns about ways in which our right to vote is being eroded and why it needs to be defended and then points to multiple ways to defend it. Certainly we need to exercise our right to vote at every opportunity, but we also need to work together to ensure that everyone who is eligible to vote can get registered and have convenient access to the ballot.

Where to begin? Anywhere. When to start? Now. What to do? Everything you can.
