Black Community News News and Commentary for Christians
According to the Centers for Disease Control’s most recent Abortion Surveillance Report, Black Americans make up 13.3% of the population, but now comprise 35% of reported abortions. To combat the high rate of abortion in the African American community, Human Coalition and the Church of God in Christ (COGIC) denomination have collaborated to launch a new website aimed at engaging Christians in an effort to end abortion in the Black community.
Family Life Campaign is the new Church of God in Christ website that is dedicated to introducing COGIC’s 6.5 million followers to the initiative.
