The Kidney Disease Screening and Awareness Program (KDSAP) was created and founded by Li-Li Hsiao, MD, PhD, in 2008 at Brigham and Women's Hospital in Boston, MA. KDSAP is a student-run organization targeting college students and aims to provide opportunities for community outreach to raise public awareness and promote early detection of chronic kidney disease (CKD). KDSAP partners with physician volunteers and community members by providing kidney screenings and health education, free of charge, to underserved populations. The first KDSAP chapter is registered at Harvard College in 2008. KDSAP currentlt has 24 fully established chapters, more under way, in the US and two international chatpers in Taiwan.
