This week marks significant momentum in federal efforts to protect children from medical experimentation.

Yesterday, the US House of Representatives passed HR3492, known as the Protect Children’s Innocence Act, prohibiting chemical castration and surgical sex-rejecting procedures on minors, and today, the US Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) announced new steps to restrict federal involvement in these dangerous practices.

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.

These activists are doing everything they can to pressure the City Club of Cleveland into silencing CCV and pushing Christian voices out of public life.

Ohio Attorney General Dave Yost, US Senator Bernie Moreno, and others publicly defended Center for Christian Virtue and corrected the false narrative being spread about us.

A Toledo man held his pregnant girlfriend down while she was sleeping to force crushed abortion pills down her throat. According to an investigation by the State Medical Board of Ohio, the Toledo man, Hassan-James Abbas, a doctor in Toledo, bought abortion pills online using his estranged wife’s name and crushed them into a powder, which he forced the victim to orally ingest while pinning her down. The unborn child did not survive.

Are you or someone you know looking for a new opportunity to make a meaningful impact?

We're excited to announce that we have multiple open positions available—and we're looking for passionate, talented, Christ-centered individuals to join our team!

“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).
