The New England Skeptical Society was founded on January 1, 1996 as a non-profit organization with the following goals:
1) To educate the public about the principles and necessity of skepticism and critical thinking in our society.
2) To investigate paranormal and pseudoscientific claims with an emphasis on local claims within New England.
3) To promote higher standards of education, especially in the areas of science and critical thinking skills.
4) To gather and disseminate information of interest to skeptics.
5) To provide a forum for local skeptics to publish their ideas and contribute to the ongoing dialogue on skeptical topics.
6) To lobby for rational law making in our state and in our country.
The Connecticut Skeptical Society has joined with SINE (Skeptical Inquirers of New England) and the New Hampshire Skeptical Resource to form The New England Skeptical Society. We are seeking to organize chapters in the remaining New England states and are accepting applications from anyone interested in becoming a chapter chairman.
