The Clergy Consultation Service on Abortion (CCS) was a group of American clergy that counseled and referred people to licensed doctors for safe abortions before the Supreme Court's decision in Roe v. Wade made abortion legal nationwide. Started in 1967 by a group of 21 Protestant ministers and Jewish rabbis in New York City, the group operated out of Judson Memorial Church and grew to incorporate chapters in thirty-eight states with some 3,000 clergy as members. By the time of the Roe v. Wade decision in 1973, it is estimated that the Clergy Consultation Service had nationally referred at least 450,000 people for safe abortions. The Clergy Consultation Service also started Women's Services, an abortion clinic in New York City, in 1970 after statewide legislation made abortion legal in New York State.

He was ordained as an American Baptist at Judson Memorial Church in New York City, and was a pastor there from 1957 to 1992. In 1967, six years before the Supreme Court recognized the constitutional right to abortion, Moody and other New York City clergy founded the Clergy Consultation Service on Abortion- “a group of 21 New York clergy who referred women for abortions when it was still illegal in every state.”. The group eventually grew into “a national network of 1,400 clergy members to help women seeking abortions. Three years later, when New York State legalized abortion, he helped establish a clinic to guide to his state women who wanted safe legal abortions.” After Roe v. Wade in 1973, the network formed the Religious Coalition for Reproductive Choice.
