A huge thank you to Judy for her fearless leadership as we look forward to continuing her efforts in pursuing the mission of the Greater Sacramento Chapter of the Freedom From Religion foundation.

Erin became involved with FFRF when she reached out for help for her secular student at his elementary school. Erin became a member then and has been Judy's right hand "man" since 2018. She has managed the visibility team for the chapter, tabling at events and helping to get the word out.

Judy founded the greater Sacramento chapter of FFRF 13 years ago, she created a safe space for atheists and agnostics, while working tirelessly to defend the separation of state and church in our area. She even made a huge splash with a local billboard campaign which made the news.
