Stroke is New Jersey’s third leading killer and a leading cause of serious, long-term disability.
No New Jersey community is at greater risk for stroke, however, than the African American-black community.
Blacks have almost twice the risk of a first-ever stroke as do whites.
Dec. 17, the American Stroke Association unveiled the “New Jersey Power to End Stroke 10,000 Man Power Ambassador Challenge.” It is men talking with men about hypertension, diabetes and stroke awareness and prevention.
Supported nationally by the Bristol-Myers Squibb/Sanofi Pharmaceuticals Partnership, “Power To End Stroke” is a vibrant national movement that raises awareness about stroke among African Americans-blacks and mobilizes opinion leaders to become ambassadors and inspire African Americans-blacks to reduce stroke in their community.
The ambitious goal is to recruit 10,000 black-African American men to serve as “power ambassadors: — men willing to have conversations about stroke with male family members, friends and colleagues at family gatherings, during the holidays, at church, sporting events and in other situations.
Join the movement. Become a “male power ambassador.”
Call the American Heart Association and American Stroke Association at 800-634-1AHA to request a free power packet.
We have the power right here, right now, the power to end stroke!
