(see Part 1, section II)

From "Solving the Organ Donor Shortage":

"The Partnership for Organ Donation, Inc. is an independent
nonprofit organization dedicated to solving the desparate shortage
of organs available for transplantation in the United States.
"The Partnership believes the gap between eligible and actual
donors can be closed, and donation substantially increased, by
implementing an organized, proactive, and systematic program which
focuses on three key audiences: health car professionals, organ
procurement organizations, and the American public."

"Solving the Organ Donor Shortage" is a very concise and detailed
description of the shortage, the problems contributing to it, and
how the Partnership believes it can be combatted, complete with
bibliography. A copy can be obtained from:
