Most of the work of organizing and directing CAUSA fell to longtime Moon aide Bo Hi Pak, a former South Korean military intelligence officer. Under the direct guidance of Reverend Moon, he played the key role in developing the CAUSA lecture materials and in shaping the content, format, and focuses of CAUSA and the American Leadership Conference, organizations which played a frontline role in educating religious, civic, political, and military leaders throughout the world in the inherent contradictions and limitations of Marxist ideology. Part of the intensity of Dr. Pak's lifelong commitment to freedom and democratic institutions stems from his own first-hand experience of the wanton destructiveness of communism.
CAUSA's first executive director was Warren S. Richardson, a Washington, D.C., lobbyist and lawyer. Richardson was an unsuccessful candidate to become an assistant secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services to Richard Schweiker; he withdrew from the nomination when it became known he had been general counsel to the controversial Liberty Lobby . In 1985 the president of CAUSA-USA was Phillip V. Sanchez, a former U.S. Ambassador to Honduras. CAUSA was active in 21 countries.
