The Troth, formerly the Ring of Troth, is an American-based international Germanic neopagan (Ásatrú or heathen) organization. The organization was founded on December 20 (Mothers' Night), 1987 by former Ásatrú Free Assembly members Edred Thorsson and James Chisholm. However, neither is any longer involved with the organization. The current Steerswoman is Victoria Clare, who took office at Trothmoot 2010.
The Troth is recognized as a non-profit corporation in the state of Texas and recognized by the state of New York as a 501(c)(3) non-profit religious organization. It hosts a yearly June meeting called Trothmoot. Trothmoot 2012 was held at Camp Netimus in Milford, Pennsylvania.
