- The development of care paths structured around women's health, with multidisciplinary care involving cardiologists, vascular physicians, gynecologists, obstetricians, general practitioners, pharmacists, midwives and other paramedical professionals.

- The integration of sessions dedicated to women's cardiovascular disease into training programs for healthcare professionals.

- Clinical and epidemiological research projects dedicated to women's cardiovascular and gynecological health.

- Communication and screening campaigns to help women acquire preventive reflexes and prepare for consultations with their doctor, while better recognizing the warning symptoms of cardiovascular disease.

- Information and prevention conferences aimed at the general public, healthcare professionals, companies and public bodies.

The missions and vocation of Agir pour le Cœur des Femmes revolve around four founding values:

- Caring: enabling all women to benefit from support and care to help them protect themselves against cardiovascular disease, so that they can live in good health and without disability for as long as possible;

- High standards: to pass on to the entire healthcare ecosystem our recognized expertise in the specificities of women's cardiovascular disease management, which is constantly updated;

- Collective experience: mobilizing and federating all the referent healthcare professionals in each region, as well as partners, local authorities, CPAMs, associations, companies and institutions, to implement prevention and care initiatives;

- Performance: constantly seek to improve the efficiency of actions undertaken to improve women's health over the long term, with regular assessment of the effectiveness of every euro invested.
