It is with heavy hearts that we share the passing of our LWPC member, Stacy Wright-Barleston. Stacy was a valued part of our coalition, and we take this moment to recognize and honor the impact she made through her work, advocacy, and commitment to improving the health of others.
Stacy was a passionate advocate, leader, and voice for women’s health. As a heart health educator, survivor, and founder of Sisters of the Heart Network, she dedicated her work to uplifting others and raising awareness about cardiovascular health, particularly among Black women.
Her work was rooted in both personal experience and deep commitment. As a heart attack survivor, Stacy transformed her journey into purpose by educating, empowering, and encouraging others to prioritize their health and advocate for themselves.
Through her leadership, Stacy created spaces for connection, education, and support. She was known not only for her knowledge but for her compassion, strength, and ability to bring people together around a shared mission of health and equity.
Stacy’s legacy lives on through the communities she strengthened and the many lives she touched. She will be remembered for her dedication, her voice, and the lasting impact of her work.
