Take a look around your congregation this Sunday, some of your members may be silently suffering from high blood pressure, diabetes or high cholesterol—all major risk factors of stroke. But with the proper education and action, we can end stroke.
The American Heart Association/American Stroke Association has created the Power To End Stroke campaign to raise awareness about stroke in our community. Power To End Stroke empowers African Americans to reduce their risk for stroke by making healthy lifestyle changes.
I encourage you and your faith-based family to participate in Power Sunday. Join others across Central Texas on Sunday, May 16, 2010 and wear purple to help raise awareness of stroke in African Americans. The American Heart Association/American Stroke Association needs your help in fighting stroke. Register your congregation to participate in Power Sunday and receive free materials to help you encourage individuals to…
- Register for the Power To End Stroke movement and Take the Pledge.
- Take a Personal Stroke Risk Assessment to learn about preventing stroke and reducing your risk.
- Eat healthy and get moving.
