  • Supporting the Human Right to a Death with Dignity

    • Our Guiding Principles

    Mentally competent adults have a basic human right to end their lives when they suffer from a fatal or irreversible illness or intractable pain, when their quality of life is personally unacceptable, and the future holds only hopelessness and misery. Such a right shall be an individual choice, including the timing and companion, free of any restrictions by the law, clergy, medical profession, even friends and relatives no matter how well-intentioned. We do not encourage anyone to end their life, do not provide the means to do so, and do not actively assist in a person’s death. We do, however, support any member who requests it when medical circumstances warrant their decision.

    Our Mission

    • To offer free service to all who apply, providing relevant information, home visits if possible and compassionate counseling for individual and family
    • To raise the awareness of all Americans concerning this basic human right
    • To promote the use of advance directives and other related legal instruments to document the intentions of any individual
    • To sponsor research into new peaceful and reliable methods to end life
    • To vigorously defend our guiding principle in a court of law when necessary
