All over the world, people are facing similar problems with or stemming from drug abuse, crime illiteracy and immorality.
David Miscavige has called these the 4 scourges of or modern world, and this is very apt.
One reason the International Association of Scientologists has sponsored the renovation of churches like the Church of Scientology of New York and the Church of Scientology of Spain is so that programs that directly address the resolution of these problems can be made more readily available.
For example, Scientology churches are set up in such a way that anyone who is concerned about drug abuse can walk in and get help in setting up a group that applies L. Ron Hubbard's technology in a secular setting to help overcome these social diseases.
The Scientology Press Office carries news releases on these topics as well.
