Rena Weinberg (nominal President of ABLE Int has been disappeared by the organization for a number of years) is a South African who was very effective at administrating the diverse Social Reform efforts of the church but who must have runUndergo processing. (Science of Survival, p.75) afoul of David Miscavige at some point to earn herself a banishment to the gulag at Scientology's International Base in California.
These social reform groups could and should serve a much-needed function of offering workable programs for the areas they address.
At one time they did.
Today, they have been neutered by association with the toxic "bad PRAbbreviation for public relations. The art of making good works well known. (HCO PL 21 Nov 72 I)" associated with the "Church" of Scientology. This is unfortunate because they are, each one, a very worthwhile program if left unfettered by the psychotic and schizophrenic oversight of the CoS.
Narconon
"NARCONON’S MISSION is to provide an effective path for rehabilitation from drug abuse and to assist society in preventing the scourge of drugs worldwide.
Using the evidence-based, drug-free approach to rehabilitation developed by acclaimed author and humanitarian L. Ron Hubbard, Narconon centers help those enslaved by drugs and alcohol to build new lives filled with purpose and productivity. Our graduates return to their families and communities drug-free and in control of their lives.
Narconon also provides comprehensive training to professionals and organizations seeking workable drug rehabilitation and prevention solutions."[2]
Applied Scholastics
The Way To Happiness
Criminon
CCHR
"The Citizens Commission on Human Rights (CCHR) is a nonprofit mental health watchdog, responsible for helping to enact more than 150 laws protecting individuals from abusive or coercive practices. CCHR has long fought to restore basic inalienable human rights to the field of mental health, including, but not limited to, full informed consent regarding the medical legitimacy of psychiatric diagnosis, the risks of psychiatric treatments, the right to all available medical alternatives and the right to refuse any treatment considered harmful."[3]
