Our Strategic Partnerships

Each year, about 795,000 people in the United States suffer a Stroke. It is the third leading cause of death NCSA’s local efforts have resulted in enlarging its circle of influence in the state as it takes the lead in providing Stroke prevention/education and post-Stroke services for the high-risk and underserved populations.
