- The Supreme Court Historical Society (SCHS) is a Washington, D.C.-based private, nonprofit organization dedicated to preserving and communicating the history of the U.S. Supreme Court. The Society was founded in 1974 by U.S. Chief Justice Warren E. Burger, who acted as its first honorary chairman until his death in 1995. The Society publishes the Journal of Supreme Court History with John Wiley & Sons, and provides other educational materials. In 2022 Rev. Rob Schenck, former head of Faith and Action in the Nation's Capital, revealed that donating to the Supreme Court Historical Society provided opportunities to meet Supreme Court Justices. He advised people attending the Historical Society annual dinner "see a Justice − boldly approach." He wrote "Your presence alone telegraphs a very important signal to the justices: Christians are concerned about the court and the issues that come before it." Schenck further advised that Justices were more likely to let their guard down at the annual dinners, because they trusted the attendees. Through their connection to the Historical Society, Hobby Lobby's owners attended a Christmas party in Supreme Court chambers shortly before litigation was initiated which would become Burwell v. Hobby Lobby Stores, Inc. (en)
