The Canadian Congenital Heart Alliance (CCHA) is a national, volunteer-run registered charitable organization advocating on behalf of children and adults living with congenital heart disease (CHD). Mission: We advocate for and enrich the lives of people with CHD through awareness, education, research and support. Vision: To be the leading voice for enriching the lives of Canadians with CHD. Value Statement: Building a dedicated CHD community that fosters compassion, empowerment and collaboration. 1 in 100 babies are born with a congenital heart defect. Over 250,000 Canadians live with CHD, sadly, there is no cure. Most will require specialized, life-long cardiac care. At least half face the prospect of multiple surgeries and/or premature death, and many develop psycho-social challenges brought on by their condition, such as anxiety, depression, isolation and financial hardship. Fewer resources are available to those with CHD than other cardiac patients and CHD research is underfunded.
