About this organization
Mission
The mission of the Death with Dignity National Center is to promote death with dignity laws based on our model legislation, the Oregon Death with Dignity Act, both to provide an option for dying individuals and to stimulate nationwide improvements in end-of-life care.
About
During the year ended March 31, 2020, through our core program, Death with Dignity National Center provided expert public policy analysis to citizens, public officials, and end-of-life care specialists interested in the experience of states that have implemented death with dignity laws. We responded to phone, email, and social media queries, providing assistance and information to individuals across the country seeking to learn more about end-of-life care for the terminally ill. We shared the latest statistics and research, including data concerning implementation of laws in various states. We disseminated resources regarding the law's impact on the medical profession, and we assisted with research and analysis of public policy data. Through our state leadership incubator, we provided resources, online trainings, and one-on-one consultations to grassroots advocates and groups in states across the country. In September 2019, we hired a full-time state leadership incubator manager to establish new partnerships with and expand our educational offerings to state-based advocacy organizations.
