Tulane Stroke Prevention Program




Our Stroke Outreach Program is dedicated to educating and empowering our community with life-saving knowledge and resources. Through local events, educational sessions, and community partnerships, we strive to raise awareness about stroke prevention, recognition, and treatment—ensuring that more people have the tools to act F.A.S.T. and improve health outcomes.

What is a stroke?


A stroke occurs when blood flow to the brain is disrupted, causing brain cells to die due to lack of oxygen; it's considered a medical emergency and requires immediate attention.
