  • Cincinnati Enquirer: Hit piece, Investigative Profile, or rave review?

    In a front-page profile, the Cincinnati Enquirer published their results of a three-month investigation focusing on Center for Christian Virtue (CCV), calling us "the biggest group driving [Christian] influence" on Ohio politics.

    But in telling the facts, they told our story.

  • Who is Center for Christian Virtue?

    “A heavy hitter in Ohio's culture wars” and “the state’s premier lobbying force on Christian conservative issues” (The Columbus Dispatch, 2021), Center for Christian Virtue (CCV) is Ohio’s largest Christian public policy organization.

    “The Center already commands unusual influence” (The New Yorker, 2022).

    “Institutions like CCV are spearheading the effort to save our children and restore morality and sanity in our schools,” said Kevin Roberts, President of The Heritage Foundation (2024).

    "[CCV] played a key role in bringing about one of the most dramatic expansions of private-school vouchers in the country," and "for these coming fights, the Center for Christian Virtue is stronger than ever” (The New Yorker and ProPublica, 2025).

    “…a policy powerhouse in Ohio” with “growing influence.” (The Cinncinnati Enquirer, 2025).

the Collapse of the family is a National Crisis

The 2025 Hope and a Future report from Center for Christian Virtue (CCV), in partnership with the Institute for Family Studies and Professor Brad Wilcox, reveals the disastrous effects the decline of marriage and the collapse of the family have had on Ohio and America. 

This new report measures how the decline of marriage and the rise of homes without married fathers has led to dramatic increases in child poverty, violence in our communities, and crashing educational outcomes. The report also proposes practical and attainable solutions for lawmakers, churches, and marketplace leaders to help right the course, and includes the Family Structure Index.
