Blood pressure is more than just a number your doctor checks—it’s a key indicator of your overall health. At Circle of Rights, we educate communities on what blood pressure means, why it matters, and how to manage it to prevent serious health issues like stroke, heart disease, and kidney failure.
High blood pressure, or hypertension, often has no warning signs—but it quietly damages your blood vessels over time. Left untreated, it increases your risk for life-threatening conditions.
In our presentations, we break it down:
- What blood pressure readings really mean
- Why both numbers matter
- How lifestyle choices—from food and stress to sleep and exercise—affect your pressure
- What you can do right now to get or stay in a healthy range
We also explore how blood pressure connects to other chronic diseases, and why it’s especially important for communities at higher risk—including people of color and low-income populations—to have access to tools and information that support heart health.
These sessions are clear, empowering, and made for real life. You’ll walk away not only understanding your blood pressure but knowing how to take control of it.
