FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Embargo: [SET ON DISTRIBUTION]

AntiAlienate.com Releases World's Largest Open-Source Knowledge Base on Parental Alienation — Free, Auto-Updated, No Paywall

[CITY / DATE] — AntiAlienate.com today announced the public release of an open-source reference repository on parental alienation that aggregates international case law, peer-reviewed research, practitioner playbooks, court-ready templates, and jurisdiction-by-jurisdiction legal references — all available free under a CC BY 4.0 licence.

The repository, hosted at github.com/AntiAlienate/antialienate-knowledge, spans:

  • 30 jurisdictions (US states + Canadian provinces + UK + EU member states + Australia)
  • 9 step-by-step playbooks covering the first 90 days, court preparation, reunification therapy, teenage cases, cross-border / Hague Convention abduction, false-accusation defence, and grandparent rights
  • 9 reference pages on the field's leading clinicians and researchers including William Bernet (Vanderbilt), Richard Warshak, Amy J.L. Baker, Bill Eddy, Jennifer Harman, Edward Kruk, Karen Woodall, Craig Childress, and Demosthenes Lorandos
  • A live auto-accumulator that polls PubMed, CrossRef, CourtListener, BAILII, and Reddit every 25 minutes and pushes new findings into a daily digest
  • 38 shareable reference cards for vocabulary, statistics, frameworks, and tactics
  • A community section routing parents to relevant advocacy organisations and peer-support spaces internationally

"The information that helps targeted parents and their lawyers has historically been scattered across paywalled academic journals, expensive legal databases, and forum threads," said Alan Markson, who catalogues the project. "We've consolidated it into one open reference and committed to keep it open. The goal is for every parent dealing with this — and every lawyer representing one — to have the same starting point."

The project is licensed CC BY 4.0, meaning anyone can use, share, adapt, or build on the material with attribution. Pull requests are welcomed from clinicians, lawyers, and affected parents in any jurisdiction.

What makes the project distinct

  • Open-source: every page is editable, forkable, and translatable under CC BY 4.0
  • Continuously updated: a background agent adds fresh court rulings and academic citations daily
  • Cross-jurisdictional: research and case law from common-law and civil-law systems
  • Practitioner-focused playbooks: not just theory — concrete steps for the parent in the middle of it
  • Names credited: clinicians, researchers, and influencers are profiled so parents know who to follow and who to ask for
