Summary
This study tests whether a church-based program led by community health workers can improve heart health and reduce racial inequalities in Black communities in New Orleans. About 800 adults aged 40 and older with at least three heart disease risk factors (like high blood pressure, diabetes, or smoking) will take part. The program includes health education, physical activity, and help with medications, and will be compared to a simpler group education approach over 18 months.
