Ten years ago the AstraZeneca HealthCare Foundation launched Connections for Cardiovascular HealthSM, a program with the mission of improving cardiovascular health, in order to address a leading cause of death in the United States. Now, AZHCF will hold an open call for applications in February 2020 for the CCH Next Generation program for new, never before funded applicants working to improve heart health in the United States, especially in the top 20 states for cardiovascular disease mortality.
CCH Next Generation will maintain the original mission of CCH to improve cardiovascular health in the U.S., as well as many of the same criteria for funding and programs, and applicants have the opportunity to adopt or modify learnings from the AZHCF and its Grant Awardees highlighted in the Effective Program Practices Guide when designing and implementing their own innovative, community-based heart health programs.
