Explore Transplant and Living Donation (ET/ELD)

Developed in collaboration with Dr. Amy Waterman, one of the nation’s leading experts in kidney transplant education, the Explore Transplant & Living Donation tailored education programs help kidney patients and their loved ones learn about their disease and treatment options. These initiatives combine gold standard research with evidence-based health literacy practices to provide the most effective education.

Transplant education made clear.

We help kidney patients make informed treatment choices about transplant and living donation through clear and innovative transplant education materials and dialysis provider training. Through trainings, partnerships, research, and materials the ET and ELD have educated more than 4,000 providers, leading to better transplant education for over 28,000 kidney patients.
