Civic Engagement
For generations, the Black church has been a cornerstone of civic life. CNBC equips congregations to engage, advocate, and serve — turning faith into a force for justice, equity, and liberation.
Why It Matters
From abolition to the civil rights movement, our congregations have been the moral conscience of the nation. Civic engagement is not separate from our faith — it is an expression of it.
Representing the historically Black denominations — more than 20 million members across some 30,000 congregations — CNBC carries one voice for justice into the public square.
