Forest Park has some help.

The End of Life Options Coalition is the local action team of Compassion & Choices Action Network Illinois, which on its website describes itself this way: “The Network improves care, expands options and empowers everyone to chart their end-of-life journey. We envision a society that affirms life and accepts the inevitability of death, embraces expanded options for compassionate dying, and empowers everyone to choose end-of-life care that reflects their values, priorities, and beliefs.”

They help with healthcare equity and dementia care at the end of life, as well as in medical aid in dying.
