For this position paper, It’s to be communicated the importance of religious leaders in the Black community concerning health education, especially regarding cardiovascular disease. Please include information about health disparities and inequity in this community. Three supporting arguments include: Churches are more easily accessible to African Americans than hospitals or healthcare may be,  there is more trust in religious leaders than with doctors or health practitioners, and accountability is greater with the religious community and friends rather than with doctors. <\/p>\n

Counterarguments may include that physicians believe they are the only trusted source due to their years of medical school and relevant education and the ease of maintaining ideal heart health with diet and exercise. <\/div>\n
