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.

LifeChoice Donor Services was established in 1971 in association with the Hartford Hospital Transplant Program. The organization was known then as the Hartford Organ Procurement Organization. When we expanded into western Massachusetts in 1994, the name was changed to the NorthEast Organ Procurement Organization and Tissue Bank (NEOPO) to reflect the expansion, and in 2001 the name changed once again to LifeChoice Donor Services. Since our founding, thousands of families have donated organs and or tissue, saving and improving the quality of life for many thousands of other individuals.
