The Unitarian Universalist Men's Network (an independent affiliate of the UUA) is a continental organization whose purpose is to support and challenge UU men in their quest to become mature, liberal, religious brothers in their personal, spiritual and social lives; to support and nurture men's programming in local congregations; and to engage men in justice making on behalf of men, women, children and the earth.

Objectives:

• Create a continental organization to support intellectual, emotional, relational, educational, recreational, political and spiritual growth of UU men.
• Foster, promote and defend male-positive and male-valuing attitudes among ourselves, and within the UUA and the larger culture.
• Challenge men to confront gender injustice, homophobia, racism, loneliness and distrust between men, and violence by men against women, children, other men, themselves, and the earth.
• Assist local UU congregations, clusters and districts in fostering a broad range of brothering communities that provide opportunities for personal growth in a trustworthy atmosphere.
• Provide a continental network for the exchange of information of special interest to UU men.
• Work with other continental UU organizations (UUWF, Black Concerns Working Group, Interweave, YRUU, UUMA, etc.) on issues of joint concern and common inspiration. Cooperate with non-UU groups in promoting dialogue and action in areas of mutual interest.
• Produce publications with a continental appeal on a wide range of subject matter which may include a continental newsletter; resources appropriate for male-based activities, worship and renewal; initiation ceremonies for men and boys; and lifespan religious education materials focused on male-positive and male-affirming understandings, men's involvement in multi-culturalism, ecology, male-female relations, and male-male relations.
