Peer Connect

Flagship Partnership Program

Be the Match logo

STAR is pleased to announce its flagship partnership with Be The Match® and the Peer Connect program.

“What is transplant like?”
“What can I do to help my child and family prepare?”
“I’m worried about paying bills. What can I do?”
“How soon will I be able to do the things I used to do?”
“As a caregiver, how do I prepare for returning home?”

If you’ve had questions like these, you’re not alone. The Peer Connect program can connect you with a trained volunteer who’s been there. No matter where you are in the transplant process, Be The Match can provide recipients and caregivers to talk by phone or email, who will share their experience and tips through the Peer Connect program.
