What is ABLE?
ABLE stands for the Association for Better Living and Education.
The powerful social betterment technologies developed by L. Ron Hubbard have given humanity the tools to reverse the deteriorating condition of our society, a fact first recognized by those who themselves experienced his life-saving methods. These individuals have since played a leading role in bringing improvement to society’s most troubled areas by getting
Mr. Hubbard’s methods broadly applied in the secular realm at the grass roots level.
ABLE is an international nonprofit public benefit corporation dedicated to social betterment. Formed in 1988, ABLE is empowered to authorize qualified social betterment groups to use L. Ron Hubbard’s technologies in purely secular charitable and educational activities. ABLE also is charged with the important responsibility of ensuring that this technology is made known and available to anyone who needs it and that the organizations authorized to utilize the technology under the social betterment trademarks are doing so correctly.
ABLE International carries out its programs directly and through a network of continental and national offices located throughout the world. ABLE and its affiliated offices closely monitor the activities of the four international social betterment organizations which utilize Mr. Hubbard’s technologies—Narconon, a drug rehabilitation program; Criminon, a criminal rehabilitation program; Applied Scholastics, an educational program; and a program for improving public morality based on a non-religious moral code called The Way to Happiness.
ABLE not only helps those who directly receive or use this technology to achieve previously unheard of results, it also makes those results known to every sector of society seeking to eradicate drug abuse, illiteracy and crime, and improve declining morality.
