 American
Heart Association – Go Red for
Women
www.GoRedForWomen.org
be
one in a million – do it for
your heart The American
Heart Association is challenging
one million women to stop heart
disease and Go Red For Women.
Women can understand their
personal risk of heart disease –
the No. 1 killer of women – by
taking the Go Red Heart CheckUp,
an interactive on-line
assessment of their heart
health. By taking the Go Red
Heart CheckUp, you’ll know your
personal heart disease risk for
the next 10 years. To learn your
heart health risk, it is
important for you to know your
numbers. Just by seeing your
healthcare provider and getting
a blood test and blood pressure
test, you can have the numbers
you need to determine your risks
and mark the progress you’re
making toward a healthier heart.
Even if you don’t have all your
numbers, you can start the Go
Red Heart CheckUp and get an
overview of the numbers you need
to know to complete the CheckUp
at a later time.
Assess your heart health now.

 NATIONAL
NETWORK TO END DOMESTIC VIOLENCE
(NNEDV)
www.nnedv.org
"The NNEDV is a social change
organization that is dedicated
to creating a social, political
and economic environment in
which violence against women no
longer exists. We are dedicated
to making domestic violence a
national priority.
NNEDV is the leading voice
for domestic violence victims
and their advocates. As a
membership and advocacy
organization of state domestic
violence coalitions, allied
organizations and supportive
individuals, we work closely
with our members to understand
the ongoing and emerging needs
of domestic violence victims and
advocacy programs. Then we make
sure those needs are heard and
understood by policymakers at
the national level.
NNEDV offers a range of
programs and initiatives to
address the complex causes and
far-reaching consequences of
domestic violence. Through
cross-sector collaborations and
corporate partnerships, we offer
support to victims of domestic
violence who are escaping abuse
relationships – and empower
survivors to build new lives.
NNEDV further supports the
fight to end domestic violence
by providing state coalitions
with critical information and
resources. From training and
technical assistance to
innovative programs and
strategic funding, we bring
much-needed resources to local
communities. At our national and
regional meetings, members share
information and ideas with NNEDV
staff and with each other,
working together to develop
comprehensive solutions."
