About 25 million Americans live with asthma—a condition that can be effectively managed for a full and active life, according to the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI).
The NHLBI's Learn More Breathe Better program offers educational resources to increase awareness and understanding of lung diseases and conditions.
The Breathe Better Network collaborates with organizations in all 50 states and the District of Columbia to support community outreach activities.
NHLBI also leads and sponsors clinical trials to advance knowledge and treatment options for lung diseases and sleep disorders, encouraging public participation in ongoing research efforts.
