Talk It Up

The Talk It Up! program provides information about organ and tissue donation to middle and high school students through classroom presentation. The goals of Talk It Up! are: to provide students with information about the lifesaving benefits of donation; to motivate students to initiate a family discussion about organ and tissue donation; and to answer questions and counter common misconceptions about donation. Presentations are conducted by trained staff and volunteers, all of whom have a personal connection to donation and transplantation. Components of the presentation include a video featuring area youth and an interactive quiz.
