做厙輦⑹ at Stark is honored to host the 2021 Stark County Heart Walk on the campus Saturday, Sept. 18. At this time, the Stark Campus is hopeful the event will be in-person, but regardless of status, the Stark Heart Walk will certainly meet its No. 1 goal: Raising awareness of heart disease.
Dean Denise A. Seachrist, Ph.D., has been named to the Stark Heart Walks Executive Leadership Team. She said being a part of this years event is meaningful professionally and personally.
By participating in this walk, you may be helping a friend or a colleague, who has an issue now, or may have an issue in the future, she said. Others may want to get involved for their own healths sake. We are all so connected in life, your actions could be saving the life of someone you know and care about.
Seachrists family has battled heart issues for generations. One cousin, Susan, died after a third open heart surgery at the age of 20. And Seachrists father, Glen, died from rheumatic heart disease when Seachrist was only 4 years old. Read the deans full story.
There are so many reasons to participate in activities that generate awareness about heart disease and its many causes whether heart issues run in your family, or not, Seachrist said. You may be saving a life.
