Dear Kossacks,
My wife and I have started a new networking and support site for families interested in raising their children in a non-theistic environment. There is not much content on the site yet, so please come join and help us build!

The site is an idea we've been kicking around for some time, and finally had some time to get it setup.
It came out of many interactions we have had with parents of similar minds who lamented that it was hard raising children in a secular environment in a country that is so overtly religious. We've heard complaints that many daycare facilities have religious overtones, and that it can be hard finding play date groups with secular families.
We envision a site where people could come and build an online community, find like-minded parents, share stories and advice, and organize events.
In the future we would also like to create simple age-appropriate learning materials for children focused on natural sciences and designed to foster a robust curiosity in our world, and help them develop tools for analyzing their environment.
Additionally, we will want to use this network to encourage members to support political causes that enforce or strengthen the Separation of Church and State.
Although the site is called 'Atheist Families', we welcome people everywhere on the non-theistic spectrum, so Agnostics and Deists are welcome. Also, we welcome people who are not necessarily in a traditional family, or who have no children, but want to participate in building secular communities and have an interest in providing secular worldviews to the next generation of Humans.
I would love your participation and feedback!
