About us
S.T.R.A.P. the Stroke Initiative is a community‑driven effort dedicated to improving stroke literacy, advancing prevention, and empowering people of all ages to respond quickly in emergencies. We believe that education saves lives — and that every community deserves clear, culturally relevant, and accessible information about stroke warning signs and risk reduction.
Our work blends creativity, youth leadership, and public health education. Through hands‑on projects, student‑designed materials, and community outreach, we make stroke awareness engaging, memorable, and actionable.
