Find Your Voice Toolkit

The AST’s Inclusion, Diversity, Equity, and Access to Life (IDEAL) Committee has developed this toolkit to empower individuals navigating the kidney transplant process. The Black community, who represent almost 30% of candidates on the kidney waiting list, face unique challenges in kidney health and transplant access. This resource will guide you on key steps, including when to see a doctor, understanding transplant evaluations, planning your journey, and what to expect before and after your transplant. Be your strongest advocate with the tools and knowledge to make informed decisions.
