Being Resilient
February is a time to recognize both Black History Month and American Heart Health Month, two important observances that celebrate resilience, awareness, and well-being.
Black History Month honors the achievements and contributions of Black individuals who have shaped history, culture, and progress. It’s a time to reflect on the past, uplift voices, and continue working toward a more inclusive and equitable future.
At the same time, American Heart Health Month reminds us of the importance of cardiovascular health. Heart disease remains a leading health challenge, particularly in Black communities, where awareness and prevention are crucial. By prioritizing heart health through education, healthy habits, and advocacy, we can help reduce risks and save lives.
This month, let’s celebrate the richness of Black history while also promoting wellness for all. Through knowledge, action, and unity, we can honor the past and build a healthier, stronger future together.
