We're so happy to see Protecting America’s Children by Strengthening Families Act (H.R. 9076) is now law! The best place for children is with their families and these policies help ensure families have the best chance to be successful so that children can remain in their homes.

Devoting some time every day to care for yourself can go a long way toward protecting your heart health. Self-care—like moving more, preparing healthier meals, getting enough quality sleep, and taking a moment to de-stress—helps your heart. #OurHearts. nhlbi.nih.gov/resources/self…
