Get Involved
As a group, we provide non-medical support to those affected by CHD through a variety of means and work to educate the public on Congenital Heart Defects. The following is a list of ways we reach out to our community.
We Got Heart
“We Got Heart” is a nationwide support group specifically geared towards ages 12-19 for all those affected by CHD including family and friends. This is a safe place where teens can talk freely amongst each other about CHD, it’s implications and lifestyle management. Click here to become a member of We Got Heart.

- Stadium Night in your area (Sports Team)
- Annual Retreat
- Monthly meetings with guest speakers and fun activities
Participate and get involved by:
