Are you interested in improving community health? Help us prevent heart disease by volunteering for one of Emory Women’s Heart Center’s free health screenings. Emory Women’s Heart Center’s “10,000 Women” project is a comprehensive program pledged to screen 10,000 local women for heart-disease risk factors. The data collected from these screenings is also used for invaluable research.
