Additional education
"Our Intervention includes a 60-90 minute educational seminar, entitled Destination: Transplant, featuring live speakers, delivered to small groups of Black kidney transplant candidates and their family and friends. Topics include: 1) basic facts about Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD), transplant, and the waiting list; 2) the experience of receiving a LDKT transplant (by a Black LDKT recipient); 3) the experience of serving as a living kidney donor (by a Black living kidney donor); and 4) strategies to increase the chances of getting a transplant sooner. Participants receive monthly mailed, written information for 9 months and a follow-up phone call from a transplant educator, 3 months after attending the seminar."
