The goal of the Baha’i Association is to create a forum for discussion and action based on the writings and teachings of the Baha’i Faith. We believe the guidance provided by the teachings and principles of the Baha’i Faith, set forth in the writings of Baha’u’llah, are valuable resources for personal transformation or to augment any course of study, be it economics, sociology, the visual and dramatic arts, philosophy, or the physical sciences. Thus, our activities and events (discussion groups, devotional gatherings, community involvement, lectures, etc.) are designed for anyone and everyone interested in personal or social change through these principles.
