Alison Gill, VP of Legal & Policy, American Atheists

2021 has been a challenging year for state legislation concerning the separation of religion and government, as states across the country have been inundated with a range of bills giving special privileges to religious organizations, at the expense of everyone's health and safety.

In this webinar, we will examine the state of religious equality in North Carolina through American Atheists' State of the Secular State report. This annual report provides an analysis of statewide laws and policies that affect religious equality and the separation of religion and government by examining more than forty legal measures in every state. We intend for this report to be a roadmap for advocates and lawmakers, helping them to understand the state laws and policies that affect their lives and set meaningful and achievable advocacy goals.

Alison Gill manages American Atheists’ federal and state advocacy for religious equality and litigation activities to protect the separation of religion and government. Alison is a nationally recognized expert on civil rights law and state advocacy.

We hope you can join us to learn about the 2020 State of the Secular States and other advocacy resources American Atheists provides to foster state advocacy to protect religious equality and the separation of religion and government.
