What is Survive Stroke Week?

Survive Stroke Week is not just a week.
It’s an ongoing dialogue elevating how you and loved ones can survive–and recover from–strokes or stroke symptoms.

While much of Stroke Awareness Month focuses on prevention, Get Ahead of Stroke® launched Survive Stroke Week to close the gap in education and resources about stroke symptoms and lifesaving treatments.

Survive Stroke Week Resources

Did you know that nearly all American adults (95%) agree stroke is an emergency, yet according to an omnibus survey by The Harris Poll, less than half (43%) say they would call 911 if they were experiencing a common symptom of stroke.

The barrier to better care is that many Americans are unfamiliar with stroke symptoms.

We want to change that.

Stroke doesn’t need to be a death sentence or even result in permanent disability.

Join us in raising awareness this Survive Stroke Week (May 3 – 9, 2025).
