About American Heart Association
The American Heart Association (AHA), a national, non-profit, voluntary health agency funded by private contributions, is dedicated to the reduction of death and disability from cardiovascular diseases including heart diseases and stroke. The association consists of approximately 2,000 community organizations in all states, the District of Columbia, and Puerto Rico. More than 4 million people volunteer with the association to fight cardiovascular diseases, the nation�s number one cause of death and leading cause of disability. Preventing heart disease and stroke is the first priority of the American Heart Association. In support of this goal, the association has contributed more than one billion dollars to cardiovascular research since 1949. The association also distributes a variety of educational materials and sponsors continuing medical education (CME) seminars and meetings.
