It’s time for a heart‑to‑heart.
As the month of love approaches, Cardiac Rehab—together with Wear Red Canada: Her Heart Matters—aims to extend our reach beyond the walls of our facility and deepen our impact within the community. Through this initiative, we are focusing our efforts on supporting women (and children) who are most at risk.
To help advance this mission, we have partnered with a local women’s shelter, Women’s Habitat, to inspire some of the most vulnerable members of our community to protect their heart health. We recognize that socioeconomic factors—such as housing stability, financial security, and health literacy—play a critical role in reducing the risk of heart disease.
We invite you to join us in making a difference. Whether by participating, spreading the word, or contributing where you can, your support helps empower women and families to take steps toward healthier hearts and brighter futures.
If you are unable to attend the event in person but would like to make a donation to the Women’s Habitat Shelter, please reach out to Dr. Lisa Cotie at lisa.cotie@uhn.ca.
