Title: Transplant Social Worker Support for Live Kidney Donation in African Americans
Brief Summary: Talking About Live Kidney Donation Support (TALKS) will study the effectiveness of education, behavior, and financial support interventions to improve consideration of live kidney transplantation/live kidney donation among African Americans on the deceased kidney waiting list. We hypothesize that interventions to help potential kidney transplant recipients and their potential donors overcome barriers to live donor kidney transplant (including family discussions, financial, or logistical barriers) could improve potential recipients' receipt of live kidney transplants. The main outcomes of TALKS will include whether potential recipients (1) have potential live donors call into the transplant center on their behalf; (2) have potential donors evaluated for transplant; or (3) receive a live donor kidney transplant.
