Choose Healthy Life: The DFA Black Clergy Action Plan

Since January 2020, COVID-19 has spread throughout the United States and has devastated the Black community.  According to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), “long-standing systemic health and social inequities have put members of racial and ethnic minority groups at increased risk of getting COVID-19 or experiencing severe illness, regardless of age. Black persons are hospitalized from COVID-19 at a rate approximately 5 times that of non-Hispanic white persons.”   

​

H. Rap Brown, former chairman of the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee in the 1960s once said, “When White America gets a cold, Black America catches pneumonia…” and today local Black communities are at the center of this health crisis. 

​

The Action Plan is based on the DFA Choose Healthy Life Standard – a sustainable, scalable and transferable approach to public health. The highly successful Standard was created and developed by Debra Fraser-Howze, founder of the National Black Leadership Commission on AIDS, to address the AIDS epidemic. It is centered around the Black church – the oldest and most trusted institutions in the Black community. Learn more...
