Visit Our Event Website   Join the Efforts to Increase Stroke Warning Signs Awareness The American Heart Association/American Stroke Association recognizesWorld Stroke Day on October 29th to help increase stroke warning signs awareness in the United States. While someone in the U.S. suffers a stroke every 40 seconds and someone dies from a stroke every 4 minutes, one in three Americans cannot recall any of the stroke warning signs. Recognizing and responding to a stroke emergency immediately can lead to quick stroke treatment and may even save a life. Learn the signs of a stroke by learning the acronym F.A.S.T. (Face drooping, Arm weakness, Speech difficulty, Time to call 9-1-1). Share the F.A.S.T. acronym with your friends, family and loved ones this World Stroke Day. Join the Together to End Stroke community by taking the World Stroke Day Pledge to End Stroke. Share the Spot A Stroke F.A.S.T. Infographic in your social media channels, on your website, and more! Download the F.A.S.T. mobile app so you can be prepared in a stroke emergency. Share World Stroke Day social messages on your social media accounts. Show your stroke support by ordering and wearing your Stroke Solidarity String!
