Donor Awareness
Statement (from
www.texasdear.org)
Welcome to the Donor Education,
Awareness, and Registry (DEAR) Program of Texas, which was created by
the Texas legislature in 2005 to allow individuals to indicate their
intent to make an anatomical gift in the event of their death. Texans
are now able to register their intent to be an organ, tissue, and/or eye
donor, at Department of Public Safety (DPS) offices as well as through
this DEAR statewide, Internet-based registry. For Texan's under the age
of 18, you can specify your intentions for donation but your parents
will make the final decision about organ, tissue, and eye donations in
the event of your death. |
