The Ethical Humanist Award is the Society’s highest honor.
The award was established in 1970 to honor an individual who “has acted with extraordinary moral courage, without regard for the sanction or acclaim of his or her peers or of society, and whose actions have had broad humanizing implications.” Since 1970, the award has been presented just 16 times.

Dr. Joseph Chuman will present the NYSEC Ethical Humanist Award to Irshad Manji, author, journalist and Director of the Moral Courage Project at NYU Wagner's Research Center for Leadership in Action -- which fosters "gusty global citizens who speak truth to power in their communitites."

Presentation of the award is at 11:00 am, 6th floor school gym. Admission is free, but space is limited. Attendance is by reservation only for both the presentation and the luncheon.
