Introduction

This page contains a list of many non-profit organizations that are linked to Scientology. Many of these organizations describe themselves as secular, when in fact, they are Scientology fronts, as per Church of Scientology's own documents. Consider these Church of Scientology documents (fair use):

The Command Channels of Scientology Watchdog Committee The WATCHDOG COMMITTEE (WDC) is the highest ecclesiastical authority in the Church. [...] [Picture, a circle, with "Association for Better Living and Education" at the bottom left] [Caption] The various sectors of Scientology		The answer to planetary clearing is to make each one of our orgs a Central Organization, responsible for every sector of Scientology activity across an entire geographic zone.		3 The final division is Fields (6C) where every type of activity is formed and continued to create a new civilization. [Church of Scientology International (CSI) provided this definition of the term "Division 6" to IRS in 1992: "This Division is responsible for attracting new Scientologists." More specifically, it described "Division 6C" as "Field Control Division, encourages Scientologists to be active in attracting new members." (pdf) [In short, as per CSI's own statements, the purpose of Narconon, Applied Scholastics, Criminon and The Way To Happiness is to recruit new members.]

Keep in mind that most non-profit, secular, Scientology-linked organizations are licensees of Association for Better Living and Education (ABLE): Applied Scholastics, Narconon, Criminon, and The Way To Happiness are all licensees of ABLE, which is described as a "management unit of the Church," a "sector of Scientology," in the above document, submitted to the IRS in 1993.
