Mission: Taoism was nearly driven into extinction by 20th Century war, famine, and revolution. TRS was founded in 1990 in order to assist in the recovery of China's Taoist communities. It is crucial that Taoism make great use of its greatest living treasures - the aged generation of pre-communist Taoists. These older Taoists - the Lao Dao - are the last remaining link to Taoism's history prior to the chaotic period of modern repression. TRS rebuilds temples staffed by Lao Tao, subsidizes communities that desire religious presence or leadership but cannot afford it, promotes research and development, and provides structure and focus to the growing Western Taoist community.
