Rolling Stone: A Doomsday Leader Died. Could a New Abuse Lawsuit End His Arizona Community?
We are proud to see our partner Karen Barth Menzies quoted in a powerful new investigation by Rolling Stone examining abuse allegations tied to the Global Community Communications Alliance in Arizona.
The article details newly filed lawsuits alleging systemic forced labor, abuse of minors, and coercive control within the organization led by Van of Urantia, who died in 2025. Karen, part of the legal team representing survivors, speaks to the profound harm inflicted on children raised in isolated, high-control environments and the long-term impact of grooming and forced labor.
This reporting underscores why survivor-centered accountability matters and why bringing these stories into the light is essential for justice and healing.
We are honored to stand with survivors and to do this work with care, courage, and persistence.
