Living With Kidney Disease^TM 

Written by adolescents with kidney disease, Living With Kidney Disease^TM is an interactive online magazine that offers teens an inside look at how the kidneys function, how medications and diet play a role in their health, and what to expect from  treatments.  Teens can also hear advice from others who have been there on how to cope with the challenges that accompany their illness.

Developed for teens and pre-teens ages 10 to 15, Living With Kidney Disease was developed to help educate young people with kidney disease about their medical condition and related procedures in order to promote adherence to treatment plans, encourage communication with the healthcare team and provide them with an opportunity to feel more empowered about their illness.
