About True Compassion Advocates

Our organization is composed of thousands of volunteer in communities all across Washington state. We advocate for true compassion, life-affirming choices, comprehensive community support, and excellence in end-of-life care. We believe that persons with life-limiting illnesses and disabilities have the right to compassionate care, loving support and comfort through the natural dying process. Our goal is to provide such vulnerable patients with all the help they need to live their lives well, in dignity and painlessly, until natural death occurs.

True Compassion Advocates enhance societal support for people who are at-risk for assisted suicide. Through education, social policy, and community action, we oppose assisted suicide by advancing genuine compassion, promoting authentic dignity, and advocating for life-affirming choices.
