Edu­ca­tion is Key

Of Iowa’s 1.6 mil­lion reg­is­tered donors, 97% said ​“Yes” while apply­ing for their dri­ver’s license. For many teenagers, vis­it­ing a driver’s license issuance site is the first time they will be asked the impor­tant ques­tion: ​“Would you like your ID or dri­vers license to show you as a reg­is­tered organ, tis­sue, and eye donor?” Mark­ing ​“Yes” gives legal con­sent to donate organs, tis­sues, and eyes. As dri­ver’s edu­ca­tion instruc­tors, help­ing the next gen­er­a­tion of reg­is­tered donors make an informed deci­sion is key to trans­form­ing more lives through organ and tis­sue donation.
