ACP For Individuals


“I want to think about my own plan, or one
for someone I care about.”

Advance Care Planning (ACP) is a process that helps you discuss what is most important to you with your family, friends, and healthcare provider so that others understand your values and medical preferences including important cultural and/or spiritual beliefs that could impact your care if you were to become ill and couldn't speak for yourself.

Specifically, ACP…

  • Makes your choices the top priority when you are being treated for serious illness.
  • Helps your support system - family, caregivers, and those close to you - keep your choices at the top of their minds as they help you deal with your illness, particularly if you cannot speak for yourself.
  • Reduces conflict and anxiety at a time when you need your support system to be on the same page about your care.

ACP For Community Organizations


“I want to bring opportunities for ACP to the people my organization serves.”

You have strong relationships with your community. They trust you, and know you have their best interests at heart. We can help you build programming and bring resources to your community to support them as they plan for their future healthcare.

Advance Care Planning (ACP) conversations about healthcare, aging, and dying can help people overcome fear and misunderstandings around these planning discussions and support them to talk openly about what is most important to them in the event of a serious or life-threatening diagnosis.

We envision these conversations becoming a natural and embraced part of life planning across all communities –beginning early in one's health journey.

We offer resources and support so that you can bring your deep knowledge about and connection with your community together with cultural expertise about ACP to reduce anxiety and provide peace of mind.
