American Heart Association Internship Profile
The Scoop
The American Heart Association traces its roots back to New York City in 1915 when a group of concerned physicians formed the Association for the Prevention and Relief of Heart Disease to educate citizens about the disease, which was quickly becoming a leading cause of death. Similar groups began to crop up in Boston, Philadelphia and Chicago in the 1920s. As national interest grew, six doctors from the associations came together in 1924 to found the American Heart Association. Today, the American Heart Association is a leading health advocate, taking on such titans as the tobacco industry and dispersing its research publicly.
