Title: Preventing Recurrence of Thromboembolic Events Through Coordinated Treatment in the District of Columbia
Brief Summary: The purpose of this study is to refine and evaluate the Preventing Recurrence of Thromboembolic Events through Coordinated Treatment in the District of Columbia (PROTECT DC) intervention. PROTECT DC is a program consisting of in-hospital education coupled with community-based "stroke navigators" and is designed to reduce the rate of vascular events or death in a population of underserved individuals with stroke.


Options:
A: Inclusion Criteria:

* Age ≥ 18 years
* Hospitalized due to ischemic stroke\* or intercurrent ischemic stroke\* event within the past 30 days OR Transient ischemic attack, confirmed by stroke neurologist.
* Atherogenic etiology(large vessel, small vessel, cryptogenic with at least one stroke risk factor, or embolic stroke due to atherogenic cardiac disease) as defined by TOAST criteria.
* Community dwelling prior to stroke
* Resides within the District of Columbia or closely nearby (preferably within 10 miles of the DC border)
* Expected to reside within the District of Columbia or closely nearby (preferably within 10 miles of DC border)
* Caregiver or interested party available, if moderately or severely disabled (not required to actually reside with participant)
* Sufficient number of collateral contacts to assure follow-up. Defined as: Preferred: at least 6 contacts; and No fewer than 3 contacts (unless approved by study PI/co-PI/co-I)
* Judged likely to return to community setting at completion of post-acute care.

Exclusion Criteria:

* Non-atherogenic cause of stroke
* NIHSS \> 20
* Any medical condition that would limit participation in follow up assessments
* Baseline dementia per informant report (AD8) or screening assessment (Short Blessed Memory Orientation Concentration Test)

  * Already suffered a stroke or Transient Ischemic Attack (TIA) or
  * At least two risk factors for stroke:

* Community dwelling

Exclusion Criteria:

* No incidence of stroke or TIA
* Stroke or TIA occurred more than 5 years ago
* less than 40 years of age

* Self-reported terminal illness with life expectancy of less than 1 year
* Plans to relocate from New York City within one year of enrollment
* Pregnant
* Nursing home resident
* Prisoner
D: Inclusion Criteria:

* Diagnosed with mild ischemic cerebral infarction or mild intracerebral hemorrhage (NIHSS \< 5) or TIA based on a clinical definition of focal neurologic deficits consistent with a single vascular territory of the brain
* Aged greater than 18 years at onset of event
* Resident of NY Metropolitan community in home with land or cell phone.
* Vascular risk factors including HTN history or elevated blood pressure (\>130/85 mmHg) at the time of discharge, smoking, diabetes or metabolic syndrome
* Discharge to home

Exclusion Criteria:

* Patients unable to give informed consent
* Discharged to long-term nursing home or requiring 24 hour care.
