Which links don't work?
The link references a listing of pdfs, at least for now. Are there any in particular that do not work or can you not get to the list at all?<ul><li><a href="http://www.porridgehead.com/acna">ACNA Lawsuit information</a></li></ul>

If they're a "Non-profit" or a "Not-for-profit", get a Form 990 for the past few years...
Sounds like a hair-pulling 'cheerleader fight'.
Assuming that they're a NP or NFP...don't really know...but if they are, they'll have to make public their 990's.
It's a public document...if they won't send you one (and I think they have to, or they incur the wrath of the IRS, and risk their tax 501c tax status), you can dig them up thru other methods.
Some lite reading re: 990's below.
A sample:
"The Form 990 is a very public document and it is becoming more public. Today an organization's Forms 990 for the past three years must be shown to anyone who wants to see them. In addition, copies of these forms must be given to anyone who requests them (either in person or in writing) and who pays a reasonable fee -- $1 for the first page and 15 cents for every page thereafter and postage, if applicable. Furthermore, most Forms 990 beginning with the year 1997 are being posted on the Internet by the National Center for Charitable Statistics and Guidestar, two nonprofit groups in the Washington D.C., area. Finally, it is only a matter of time before all charities will be required to file their Forms 990 electronically. Thus, virtually every Form 990 is or soon will be accessible by anyone in the world."<ul><li><a href="http://www.npccny.org/Form_990/990.htm">Info on Form 990 filings</a></li></ul>
