About National Stroke Awareness Month

National Stroke Awareness Month takes place in May every year. In honor of this special time, National Stroke Association strives to provide everyone with the tools and inspiration to raise public awareness about stroke by hosting awareness events or activities. It doesn't matter if you are an individual or a large corporation, because the more people we reach, the better.
Stroke is the third leading cause of death and a leading cause of disability in America, but many people do not realize how educating themselves and others will help reduce the incidence of stroke. We urge you to specifically educate others about how to:
· STOP stroke through risk factor management.
· Act F.A.S.T. to increase recognition of and response to stroke symptoms.
· Spread HOPE about recovery from stroke.
