SUMMARY
The total number of organ donors in Connecticut is unknown, but there are currently 704,370 registered donors in the state. Connecticut recruits organ donors primarily through the Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV). We did not find any states that waive driver's license fees for organ donors. Georgia is currently the only state that reduces the fee for donors. Efforts to increase organ donation in other states include public and professional education as well as training of people requesting donation. They also include various federal and state legislative measures such as the use of donor cards to indicate a preference for donation and the development of donor registries.
