Overview
Brief Summary
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn whether the African American Transplant Access Program can be successfully replicated at another large kidney transplant program. The main questions it aims to answer are:
Does the AATAP intervention increase the number of Black patients who are listed for kidney transplant? Does the AATAP intervention have an effect on Black patient self-efficacy and trust in care team?
Researchers will compare kidney transplant listing status after 12 months of patients in the AATAP intervention to usual care patients to see if the AATAP program increases the number of patients listed for transplant.
