What is Million Hearts?

What is Million Hearts?
A pretty good idea.
 
One of the goals is to prevent 1 million heart attacks and strokes in the US in the next 5 years.
I don't think anyone can really argue with that. It's a pretty noble cause.


Here's another good idea: Aligning public and private partners from across the country to leverage a wide range of existing heart disease and stroke prevention programs, policies, and activities as well as create new programs.
 
This is where the Healthy Eating Initiative can help. Are you a member of a church group or a civic club? If so, it would be very much appreciated if you'd contact me at eatwelllivewellpikecounty@gmail.com with your name and a phone number or email address where you can be reached. Let's get a time together to share a program of good health and good eating with your group.
 
 Need one more good reason to become a part of the Million Hearts initiative? How about this?
To improve health across communities and help Americans live longer, more productive lives.

Let's get Pike County on the right track of preventive health. Sharing information with a friend is a great way to start!
