Cardiovascular disease is the No. 1 killer of women
 
Since 2004, the American Heart Association’s signature women's initiative, Go Red for Women, has addressed the awareness and clinical care gaps of women’s greatest health threat, cardiovascular disease (CVD). We are prepared to meet the evolving needs of women now, and at every age, every stage and every season of their lives as their trusted, relevant source for credible, equitable health solutions.

Heart disease is the No. 1 killer of women, claiming more lives each year than all forms of cancer combined. Yet only about half of women know it’s their greatest health threat.
Many women don’t recognize key risk factors like blood pressure and cholesterol — or what healthy levels should be.

That awareness gap costs lives. This campaign exists to change that.

Strong women deserve strong hearts!
