Elko Teacher Honored with Kids Heart Challenge Legacy Award
Generations of Elko, NV, students have learned healthy living skills, thanks to a dedicated educator and a 2021 American Heart Association Legacy Award honoree. Mike Brown recently retired after teaching at Grammar #2 and Northside Elementary schools since 1987. In that time, Mike utilized the AHA’s youth-oriented programs to teach students how physical activity and healthy eating can help their heart, bodies and minds. From 1987 to 2020, Mike and his students raised more than $128,000 for the AHA.

Promoting Native American health in northern Nevada
In northern Nevada’s Native American community, where hypertension and diabetes rates are disproportionately high, our Check.Change.Control. initiative has emerged as a lifeline. The evidence-based hypertension management program enables participants to take ownership of their cardiovascular health through blood pressure self-monitoring. Over the past year, our team has worked with health care leader Renown to scale the program and raise awareness about hypertension risk factors, prevention and management.
Your Voice Matters
We will only beat heart disease and stroke if we work together. We advocate for policies that prevent cardiovascular diseases, improve the quality of and access to care, increase research funding and expand rehabilitation services.
