Elizabeth

Needs Us

Elizabeth deserves the same protections every child deserves.The religious group involved, the Church of the First Born, has faced longstanding concerns including:

  • Isolation of members from outside influence
  • Denial of modern medical treatment
  • Strict limitations on the rights of women and girls

When children are involved, these concerns deserve independent oversight and transparency.


Elizabeth deserves to grow up safe, healthy, and free. No child should be beyond the protection of the law.

OARC’s Mission

Oklahomans Against Religious Cults exists to shine a light on cults that exploit faith to control, abuse, and isolate vulnerable people. Our mission is to educate the public, support victims, and advocate for transparency and accountability so that no organization operating in Oklahoma can hide abuse behind claims of religious authority.
