Secular Coalition for America Organized

 

On the day after the Godless March on Washington, November 2, 2002, the leader of three organizations founded the Secular Coalition for America.

The three organizations were the Atheist Alliance International, the Institute for Humanist Studies, and the Internet Infidels. The mission of the Secular Coalition was to increase the visibility and respectability of nontheistic points of view in American society.
