If I want to register, what should I do?

 To register as an organ and tissue donor, click here. Donate Life New England is an online registry for all New England residents to declare their wish to save lives.  

Please share this decision with your family. 

You may also make your decision known through the CT DMV or the MA RMV when you receive or renew your driver's license or state ID.   You will be asked if you wish to become an organ and/or tissue donor.  The information you provide goes into a donor registry database accessible by the organ procurement organization (OPO) in the event you are eligible to give the gift of life. In Massachusetts, please be sure to check "yes" to donation on your renewal form.

  If you register as a donor in Connecticut or Massachusetts (by either or both routes), this is considered legal consent for organ and tissue donation.  It is also very important to make your wishes known to your family.  

As a donor, you have the power to save and improve the lives of over 75 people.
