What is the UU SF Forum?

“We are a spiritual community coming together for social justice and community education."

We meet for breakfast and conversation each Sunday and to hear compelling speakers of stature and deep knowledge in many areas, including politics, religion, philosophy and academia as well as eco- and social-justice.

Each week the Forum features a special speaker or presentation. Check the home page of www.uusf.org, our monthly newsletter, or our weekly newsletter the Flame for details of upcoming events.
