Please join us for the screening of “A Teachable Moment” to learn about strokes. We will have a panel discussion after the film with Dr. Riz and other experts who work on the preventative and rehabilitation end. This is a FREE event. This event is open to anyone who is interested, has suffered a stroke or has a loved one who has been affected.

Each year, nearly 800,000 people suffer from a stroke. A Teachable Moment is the story of four strangers who find common ground after one moment changes their lives forever.

Every 40 seconds a stroke radically changes a person’s life. These attacks happen to anyone of any age at any time. Once considered an “over 65” disease, stroke attacks the lives of adults as young as 30 at staggering rates. Some recover, many don’t. This film is the story of four survivors searching for their new normal.

A call to action for everyone, A Teachable Moment is a feature-length documentary dedicated to describing the science behind the disease, offering lifestyle choices to lower risk and empowering viewers with the knowledge that strokes are preventable, treatable and beatable.
