That is, to produce something of value, an organization must have all seven divisions operating. The first division of the organization is the Hubbard Communications Office-so named because its main functions were originally part of L. Ron Hubbard's office in the early days of Scientology. This division establishes and keeps the church running. The functions include hiring personnel, answering the phones, handling the mail, delivering internal communications, filing reports on the church's operations and administering its ethics and justice system. The next division, Division 2, is the Dissemination Division.
Dissemination means to spread or scatter broadly.
In a Scientology church, this division makes Scientology services and materials widely known. It produces mailings and publications, such as the church's magazine, which are sent to all parishioners, and operates the church bookstore. The staff in this division inform individuals about Scientology. Church members often write to request information or to arrange for services. Those letters are answered within this division.
