Well we probably now have only one fucking failure of stroke association in the US rather than two. I'm sure that the 168.8 million the ASA spent was wasted since there was NO stroke strategy being followed to solve all the problems in stroke. If they were any good at all they would publicly release contacts for the board of directors so survivors can influence what they set as the direction for the combined association.

Thank you
for your past support of the National Stroke Association (NSA). For more
than 35 years of independent operation, the NSA has helped countless
patients, families, and caregivers. As we look to the future, the NSA’s
board of directors has decided that the best opportunity for continued
success and growth is to fold our efforts into those of the American
Stroke Association (ASA), a division of the American Heart Association
(AHA). Our common goal remains—to reduce death and disability from
stroke.(Where the fuck is the strategy you are following to do just that?) This will ensure that our combined resources are working harder
to reduce the toll that stroke takes on families, communities and our
nation by eliminating the redundancies of separate operations and
infrastructures.
The ASA
spent $168.8 million last year on stroke research, advocacy, public and
professional education, treatment and recovery efforts, and more. With
your continued support, we can do even more.
Moving
forward, if you’d like to continue to get the latest updates and
insights on stroke, we encourage you to subscribe to the American Stroke
Association's Together to End Stroke e-newsletter by clicking here.
