Together, we reached millions of people on multiple social media platforms and on national TV and radio in September. This outreach raises awareness of the need to address high cholesterol regardless of the cause, but especially when it is genetic.

So many of you shared your own life experiences on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram. It was incredibly impactful! We heard from physicians who were disappointed by the state of care for familial hypercholesterolemia and people who realized they might be affected or who were just beginning their journey with familial hypercholesterolemia. Your voices brought the message home: everyone deserves an accurate diagnosis and everyone needs timely and appropriate medical management if they have high cholesterol.
