Last call CHD parents. πŸ’™

This Saturday is our first CCHA Connect Session, and we really don't want you to miss this.

Here's what makes it different:

πŸŽ“ Education: A focused, practical topic to help you navigate your child's CHD journey.

πŸ’¬ Connection: You'll get to connect with other parents navigating CHD and we will have adults with CHD as special guests to share their wisdom of what it's like navigating life with CHD.

This isn't just a support group. It's a learning space + a community + a rare chance to ask adults who've walked the walk.

πŸ“… Saturday April 11th, 2026
⏰ 11:30AM EST, 8:30AM PT, 9:30 GMT, 12:30 AST
