The HeartStart Generation

HeartStart Generation is a youth-based nonprofit working to end deaths from sudden cardiac arrest through CPR training, heart health education, and community advocacy.

Our vision is a world where no life is lost to sudden cardiac death due to a lack of immediate response or intervention. By empowering youth to lead this initiative, we're creating a new generation of heart health advocates and potential lifesavers. We have four main pillars to do this:

1. Raise Public Awareness

Educating communities about the risks and prevention of sudden cardiac death so more people understand the urgency and act when it matters.

2. Youth Empowerment

Training the next generation of cardiac arrest life-savers.

3. Enhance Community Preparedness

Strengthening community readiness through hands-on CPR training and emergency response education programs.

4. Advocate for Policy Change

Championing policies that support sudden cardiac death prevention, research, and improvements to emergency response systems.
