Now, National Stroke Association has developed the STARS program with support from a Charitable Contribution from the Bristol-Myers Squibb/Sanofi Pharmaceuticals Partnership. STARS stands for Steps Against Recurrent Stroke and is a program to make sure you know there is so much you can do to reduce your risk for a recurrent stroke.
