This study, called the C.H.U.R.C.H. Trial, is looking at ways to reduce colorectal cancer (CRC) and heart disease risk, especially among African Americans. It compares two approaches: one uses Community Health Workers (CHW) to provide Screening, Brief Intervention, and Referral to Treatment (SBIRT) for CRC screening, along with a web-based lifestyle program called "Alive!". The other approach, "Referral as Usual," involves giving out educational materials and contact information for screening services. The main goal is to see if the CHW-led SBIRT approach increases CRC screening uptake after 6 months. You might be able to join if you are 45 or older, speak English, are not up-to-date with CRC screening, have a working phone, and can give informed consent. The current status of the study is unclear.
