摘要
The Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) Organ Donor website is a federal government source providing information and educational resources about organ donation and transplantation. Within the Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS), the Division of Transplantation (DoT) acts as the principal organization overseeing organ and blood stem cell transplant systems in the United States. The HRSA developed this resource with the goal of educating the public and increasing the number of national organ and stem cell donations. The primary aim of this website is to provide educational tools and resources to promote public awareness and education of organ donations and transplantations, as well as providing connections to the national transplant waitlist and scientific registry of transplant recipients. The website, found at <> also provides links to the legislation and policy related to donation and transplantation, as well as further reading on the topics of grant and research programs and advisory committees.
