Support women’s heart health on National Wear Red Day
The first Friday in February marks National Wear Red Day!
The day is meant to raise awareness about heart disease, which is the leading cause of death for women in the United States.
“National Wear Red Day isn’t just about wearing red; it’s about coming together to demand more when it comes to the heart health and well-being of our communities,” said Jessaca Rodriguez, executive director of development and community health at the American Heart Association. “It’s about raising awareness, so women know their risks, and supporting them in the journey to better health.”
Among adult women aged 20 years and older, nearly 45% are living with some form of cardiovascular disease, according to the American Heart Association.
