New Year’s 2026 review highlights community efforts in Valencia’s La Llum district with nearly 200 volunteers aiding education and emergency response
KINGNEWSWIRE / PRESS RELEASE // VALENCIA, Spain—15 January 2026—The Church of Scientology Mission of Valencia’s community outreach program was featured in the New Year’s Celebration 2026 review for its blend of introductory religious services and volunteer-led prevention and civic-education campaigns in the west-side La Llum (La Luz) neighborhood.
The review noted growing public safety concerns in Valencia and identified the local Mission as a hub for community support and volunteer engagement. Spain’s public safety statistics are updated quarterly by the Ministry of the Interior and analyzed by Valencia’s municipal statistics office through city data publications.
According to the review, the Valencia Mission provides Scientology services “from introductory levels to the State of Clear.” The State of Clear is a significant point on Scientology’s spiritual path, while the Mission’s community work involves volunteers participating in three Church-supported social programs: United for Human Rights, The Way to Happiness, and Drug-Free World.

Local volunteers aim their outreach at both residents and visitors, reflecting Valencia’s status as a key cultural and tourism hub in Spain.
“The Way to Happiness” and community behavior
Volunteers also share and discuss The Way to Happiness, a secular moral code devised by Scientology founder L. Ron Hubbard in 1980, consisting of 21 precepts about personal integrity, responsibility, and respect. The booklet is described by organizers as a practical resource used in neighborhoods to foster positive, non-confrontational social cohesion.
Drug prevention in public spaces
Drug education remains a focus, building on past outreach. A prior example in Valencia saw Mission volunteers conduct the Truth About Drugs initiative in the Port of Valencia, distributing prevention materials to support informed choices. This campaign is primarily sponsored by the International Association of Scientology and
