Benson, who is the Director of the Office of Global Health and Health Disparities at the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke, which is a part of the U.S. National Institutes of Health, and Brady Johnson, who is a stroke survivor and ambassador at the American Stroke Association. Together, they emphasize the importance of having healthy conversations with your loved ones about health during this holiday season. These conversations can range from simple check-ins to learning about family history and discussing the risks associated with uncontrolled high blood pressure that might run in the family. They also encourage conversations about how to prevent and act fast in case of a stroke and the risk factors that may lead to dementia. Britt and Jackie hope to inspire  our community to take preventative measures and act fast to ensure good health.
