Championing Heart Health: AR+D Joins the Live to the Beat Movement

At Asare Research and Development (AR+D), we know that big health changes often start with small, consistent steps. That’s why we’re proud to serve as an official ambassador for the Live to the Beat campaign, part of the national Million Hearts® initiative aimed at helping people take control of their heart health, especially in communities that face the greatest risk for cardiovascular disease.

Through this partnership, we’re expanding our efforts to bring practical tools, accessible education, and community-based support to individuals across California. Heart disease is still the leading cause of death in the U.S., but with the right habits and information, many of these outcomes are preventable.

What Is Live to the Beat?
Live to the Beat offers free, easy-to-use resources to help individuals:

• Move more
• Eat healthier
• Manage blood pressure and cholesterol
• Reduce stress
• Quit smoking
• Stay on top of checkups

Start your journey today by taking the Pulse Check—a simple, personalized tool to assess your current habits and build a heart-healthy plan.

Strengthening Partnerships Across California

In addition to this national campaign, AR+D continues to support local impact by working with the California Department of Public Health (CDPH) and the Healthy Hearts California initiative. Together, we’re addressing hypertension, heart disease, and stroke through policy guidance, clinical best practices, and community-based interventions tailored for equity.

As an organization committed to measurable outcomes and community well-being, we’re excited to deepen our contributions to a more heart-conscious future.
