Connects Hearts

A CHD MASTERMIND

Empowering Families.

Revolutionizing CHD Care.


Welcome to CHD Connects Hearts — a movement built by families, for families.

Here, connection drives strength, collaboration sparks change, and no one walks this journey alone.


About CHD Connects Hearts


Congenital Heart Defect (CHD) families face more than a diagnosis — they face a lifetime of questions, battles, and broken systems.


For too long, our community has been fragmented.


Support scattered.


Resources siloed.


Families are navigating very challenging paths.

Adult warriors are not receiving the care they need.


We believe it doesn’t have to be this way.


We’re building something different — a united front where families, survivors, researchers, hospitals, foundations and advocates come together to drive real change.

A CHD Mastermind that is a private space for families, survivors, researchers, organizations and advocates to share strategies, solve challenges, and build strength together.

This isn’t just support — it’s action. Collaboration. Leadership.

Empower families with knowledge, tools, and community.



Because connection isn't optional — it's essential.

And together, we are stronger.

  • Connect

    Build a living, breathing community where every family feels seen, heard, and supported — at every stage of the journey.


  • Innovate

    Develop new tools like the CHD Passport, giving families and providers a better way to track care, spot problems early, and plan for the future.


  • Elevate
