Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Website Intervention

Study participants will take the self-administered pre-test in the intervention arm and will be introduced to the website to inform the public of various topics concerning end-stage kidney disease and kidney transplantation. Few websites about transplantation are tailored to potential Hispanic kidney transplant candidates or the Hispanic community. This website is designed to fill the void and be an effective bilingual web-based educational resource targeted to Hispanic patients and public which can serve as a culturally competent tool to enhance knowledge and attitudes about living kidney donation.
