New York Toolkit for Volunteers

March 12, 2017

The evidence is on our side. So are the polls. But New York lawmakers won’t authorize medical aid in dying unless they hear from you — their constituents.

You can help make medical aid in dying a reality for New Yorkers by talking to those who represent you in the state legislature by

Calling them
Visiting them in their district office
Showing up at a town hall or fundraising event

Here are some resources that can help you do these things.

This page is a work in progress and will be updated with the latest information as it is made available (April 2020)
