The Jackson Heart Study (JHS) is the largest single-site community study of heart disease and its risk factors.

JHS promotes heart health by engaging the community, training minority health professionals, educating the public and conducting research and sharing findings. The JHS will transform a history of African Americans’ heart disease into a legacy of heart health.
