Dear Ms. (Maria)
You will find several resources in our links list: https://www.icsahome.com/elibrary/links The Reporters Committee for Freedom of the Press, for example, has a useful First Amendment Handbook.
Thank you for considering www.icsahome.com as a resource…
Founded in 1979*, the International Cultic Studies Association (ICSA) is a global network of people concerned about psychological manipulation and abuse in cultic or high-demand groups, alternative movements, and other environments. ICSA is tax-exempt, supports civil liberties, and is not affiliated with any religious or commercial organizations. (See links to the left.)ICSA is unique in how it brings together former group members, families, helping professionals and researchers.
ICSA’s mission is to apply research and professional perspectives to:
- Help former members of cultic and other high-control environments
- Provide guidance and support to families of people involved in high-control environments
- Educate the public about psychological manipulation and the harmful effects of high-control environments
- Encourage, support, and conduct research to advance understanding of psychological manipulation and high-control environments
- Support helping professionals interested in this area
Good luck… I hope you consider becoming a member of ICSA: https://www.icsahome.com/membership
Regards,
Michael Langone, PhD
Executive Director
