In recognition of National Heart Month in February, Saint Agnes Hospital is honored to host the 8th Annual Red Dress Sunday. Red Dress Sunday is an innovative faith-based health education and outreach program designed to raise awareness of the devastating effects of heart disease among women. This year's Red Dress Sunday event will be held in over 130 congregations throughout the region on February 12th.
This year Red Dress Sunday will be celebrated at well over 130 churches throughout the region. We are grateful to our Platinum Sponsor, CareFirst BlueCross BlueShield, for their continued partnership and support of this powerful initiative. In order to ensure a vibrant initiative as we continue to grow and to better accommodate requests for information regarding Red Dress Sunday and Heart Disease we have developed this website.

The Saint Agnes Hospital Cardiovascular Institute is committed to not only the advance treatment of heart disease, but to the prevention by educating and raising awareness. We have put together an array of materials to be shared throughout congregations with one goal: changing the impact cardiovascular disease has on women.
We encourage you to take full advantage of all of the materials on this site. You will see an area for Red Dress Sunday, geared toward preparing for a successful and impactful event, as well as a Tool Kit filled with helpful and educational materials.
These materials offer valuable information regarding many aspects of heart health including diet, exercise, healthy tips and much more. These materials are valuable leave behinds for your congregants. Please feel free to download and print as many as you like!
