I'SOT
I'SOT, which stands for In Search of Truth, is a Pentecostal/Bible-based offshoot Christian religious group founded in the late 1960s by E. Marie White (also known as E. Marie Tolbert) in Santa Cruz, California. The group was named after a religious tract published by Mrs. White in Gilroy, California.
The I'SOT community's main branch is in Canby, California, with a second branch in Coeur d'Alene, Idaho. Canby is known for the I'SOT's nativity scenes prominently displayed along the town's main street, California State Route 299.
Of the several thousand onetime dedicated members to pass through the group, a small group of about 150 to 200 active members are still living today in the small rural town of Canby in Modoc County, California and a few isolated places in the northwest.
==Criticisms==
Allegations of physical and sexual abuse brought against members by clients of I'SOT's Group Home/Foster Home during the late 1980s prompted an investigation by State of California Department of Social Services Community Care Licensing Division. The final report was filed July 26, 1991. That Investigation found a ''preponderance of the evidence'' that members of I'SOT had physically and sexually abused residents of the group home between 1978 and 1990. I'SOT's application for renewal of their license to operate the Group Home was denied, after which they appealed the decision and lost. The Group Home was sold to ''Environmental Alternatives'', but many I'SOT members still work there.
