Black Churches work with Dr. Katie DeRose and Dr. Clyde Oden to promote physical activity, and produce a sermon guide for promoting healthy eating and healthy living to reduce obesity and diabetes in African American populations in South Los Angeles.

Text Messaging for Improving Community Health Disparities in African American populations
  • Church-based programs can act on multiple levels to improve dietary and physical activity behaviors among African Americans and Latinos. However, the effectiveness of these interventions may be limited due to challenges in reaching all congregants or influencing behavior outside of the church setting.

Organizing Congregations To Create Change - LAM Archives September 1999

Looking Back to Our Roots:
LAM is a steady movement in the Black organizer community. Even today, in COVID-19, there is a changing of the guards at all levels. In the church, we see our elders giving way to a new generation of faith-based leaders. This younger generation of black activists are critical thinkers, well-read, well traveled, bold, deserving, humble, and prepared freedom fighters.

LAM is a movement that is actively creating a new generation of empowered pastors and lay leaders from small neighborhood congregations. It has one of the oldest success models for urban congregations. Join us. Make a donation. Pray for us.
