Jehovah's Witnesses in Woodland Hills, CA is a religious organization that has been operating since 1989. They offer a voluntary insurance program called Kingdom Hall Assistance Arrangement (KHAA) which provides coverage for congregations and individuals involved in elder misconduct cases, including child sexual abuse claims. The program is funded by contributions from Jehovah's Witnesses members and also includes the purchase of commercial excess insurance.
Through their KHAA program, Jehovah's Witnesses aim to protect their congregations and the Watch Tower Bible and Tract Society of Pennsylvania. The program operates by collecting annual contributions from members, which are used to purchase commercial insurance. In cases where claims exceed the self-insured retention amount, the insurance company becomes liable. The program also covers claims related to elder misconduct, allowing for secret settlements without involving authorities. The organization is currently facing legal challenges that have exposed vulnerabilities in their defense strategies.
