New program aims to boost heart health in black women

NCT ID NCT06966258

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study tests a 24-week community-based lifestyle program called Inspire HER for Black women aged 30-79 with heart, kidney, or metabolic conditions. The program provides health education, physical activity, and social support to improve heart health. Researchers will also compare how Black women and men respond differently to stress. The main goal is to see if the program is practical and acceptable, not yet to prove it works.

What this could lead to

If it works, this could point toward a scalable program to reduce heart disease risk in Black women.
