A PROCLAMATION HEART HEALTH AWARENESS MONTH
WHEREAS: WHEREAS: WHEREAS:
WHEREAS: WHEREAS: THEREFORE:
The number one killer of American men and women, cardiovascular disease, is responsible for one out of every four deaths in the United States; and
Heart disease is the number one killer of women, causing one in three deaths each year; and

The American Heart Association's "Go Red For Women" movement advocates for more research and swifter action for women's heart health; and
Maintaining a strong heart is key to a long and healthy life. Our state is committed to improving the health of our citizens, offering assistance and opportunities to achieve a greater level of overall health; now
I, NATHAN DEAL, Governor of the State of Georgia, do hereby proclaim FEBRUARY 2016, as HEART HEALTH AWARENESS MONTH in Georgia.
In witness thereof, I have hereunto set my hand and caused the Seal of the Executive Department to be affixed this 15th day of january in the year of our Lord two thousand sixteen.
