Our Mission

Awareness that becomes action for every heart.

We exist to ensure that family history, genetic risk, and emotional wellness become part of every conversation about heart health.

Mission

Inherited Hearts Foundation empowers individuals and families through education, family history awareness, inherited cardiovascular risk education, early detection, and patient advocacy.

Vision

A future where every family knows their cardiovascular story, every community has access to screening, and heart wellness includes the mind.

Approach

We bring together education, family history awareness, inherited cardiovascular risk education, advocacy, and emotional wellness to help individuals and families become more informed and empowered about their heart health.

Promise

To show up for individuals and families with compassion, credible information, and consistent action, not just during awareness months, but throughout the year.

Why this matters

Your family history may hold clues to your heart health.

Some cardiovascular conditions can run in families, yet inherited risk can go unrecognized until a serious health event occurs. Understanding your family history can help uncover important clues, encourage earlier conversations with healthcare professionals, and guide appropriate next steps.

Inherited Hearts Foundation is working to change that through education, awareness, community outreach, advocacy, and partnerships that help individuals and families better understand their risk and take informed action.
