Organ, Tissue & Eye Donation
More than a decade of collaboration between EffectiveArts and organ, tissue, and eye donation organizations across the US and internationally have resulted in a full array of research-based training programs to have donation staff be effective.
Every day, individuals and their families receive a priceless gift: a new life (a life saved or a life enhanced). Hundreds of committed donation staff and management make this possible — people who give of themselves far and beyond what is called for in most professions.

EffectiveArts' services have been credited with specific, measurable results including:
- Patient’s families are better cared for;
- Families authorizing donation who wouldn’t have otherwise;
- Higher family authorizing rates (overall, with individual requesters, and with specific issues such as DCD and First Person Authorization) - see DeLario, G, NATCO Top Abstract Award 2013;
- True partnerships with hospitals being established (resulting in higher hospital authorization rates), and
- Increases in staff retention - see Maury, V., et al., AOPO Annual Conference 2002.
