  • Celebrate the 50th Anniversary of CPR!

    In 1960, a group of resuscitation pioneers combined mouth-to-mouth breathing with chest compressions to create Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation, the lifesaving action we now call “CPR.” This action, when provided immediately after a sudden cardiac arrest, can double – even triple – a victim’s chance of survival.

    Join us throughout this anniversary year as we celebrate CPR and the people whose lives it has saved over the last 50 years!

  • You're the Cure

    You don't have to be a doctor to save lives. Just be willing to deliver a lifesaving message to public officials whenever you can. Maybe you've already participated with the American Heart Association before by walking in a Heart Walk. Or perhaps you've helped organize a gala event. Maybe you even helped someone survive a heart attack or stroke. At moments like these, You're the Cure. Even if you're someone who wants to get involved for the first time, you can be part of the cure.

We're Getting Closer to a Smoke-Free Northern KY!

Friday, August 20, 2010
You may have heard that a draft smoke free law has been released in the media for consideration by elected officials in Northern Kentucky. The proposed ordinance covers all workplaces, including restaurants and bars with just a very limited exemption for certain private clubs.
Your elected officials need to hear from you now about your support for a strong smoke free law that protects the rights of all residents and workers to breathe clean, smoke free air at work and in public places. This proposed ordinance fits the bill - and the county judges and commissioners should pass it without adding exemptions or loopholes that will leave some people unprotected.

Whether you live in Boone County, Campbell County, or Kenton County, speak up now for your right to smoke free air by emailing your elected officials. Ask them to support a 100% smoke free Northern Kentucky!

Please let us know if you get a response. Thanks for your support!
