Ethical Leaders are our equivalent of clergy.

Leaders present Sunday morning platform addresses, adult education programs to inspire and challenge. Leaders perform pastoral duties including counseling, teaching, and officiating at life passage ceremonies including weddings, memorials, and baby namings. Weddings performed by Ethical Leaders have legal standing as religious ceremonies.

The Leaders provide guidance to the Society's Board and committees and helps set the "religious tone" of the Society.

The Leaders represent the Society in other forums in the larger community.
