The Real Cult Awareness Network
Consumer alert: The real CAN is not to be confused with the Scientology-backed "new CAN." The real CAN was an anti-cult organization. A Scientology entity bought the name, logo, phone numbers, addresses, etcetera, of the real Cult Awareness Network. If you need information about cults, ex-cult support, or related issues, Apologetics Index recommends you contact these legitimate organizations.

"The Church of Scientology has had a long-standing campaign to destroy the Cult Awareness Network. It was in the interests of Mr. Moxon's major client, the Church of Scientology, to destroy CAN totally and to do what has occurred. It was not in Jason Scott's interest at all." Scott has not just fired an attorney with ties to Scientology; he has hired an attorney with a history of opposing that church.
