At UCLA, we understand the importance of education. Educating the general public about kidney diseases will increase awareness and involvement in the community. With proper education, the early symptoms of the diseases can be identified earlier, avoiding further complications while saving many lives. Check out the side bar of this page for educational topics that you might be interested to read more about.

The UCLA CORE Kidney Website will help answer all your questions and other concerns by posting frequent updates on various aspects of kidney health and disease and through various outreach events, webinars  and support groups. This website and our programs aim to capture those seeking to learn more about kidney disease. You can be a part of this great movement by helping us help people who are affected by kidney diseases. Help in any form will only better the life of many others. To know more about ways to help, please visit our Make a Gift page.
