There are more than 180,000 Canadian children and adults with congenital heart defects who need your help.


CCHA For life - Forum The Canadian Congenital Heart Alliance (CCHA) is an organization made up of patients with a congenital heart defect, their friends, families, and the medical community. With your support, we aim to improve the quality of care for these patients, many of whom require lifelong expert care.
