Latino/Hispanic Community Engagement

Everyone deserves a say in their future healthcare, and for Latino and Hispanic communities, culturally sensitive end-of-life planning is crucial. By exploring care options, discussing wishes with loved ones and healthcare providers, and documenting plans, individuals can ensure their preferences are honored.

Community Spotlight

"Decides cómo vives, decides cómo amas y decides cómo te vas de este mundo.” Escucha la historia de Claudia Alarco Alarco, activista local de Washington, D.C. En esta videoentrevista en español, nos cuenta por qué es importante conversar sobre el fin de vida.

Compassion & Choices is proud to offer a host of tools and resources to help you and your loved ones “finish strong” by planning for an end-of-life experience that matches the life you’ve enjoyed – defined by love, purpose and agency.

Motivated by the impact of racism, inequity and disparities in end-of-life care, we are connecting with people nationwide to spread the word about the importance of end-of-life care planning and accessing quality end-of-life care.

Our Goal

Since 2015, Compassion & Choices has made an intentional effort to reach Latino and Hispanic communities across the U.S. with end-of-life resources and support. Through events, storytelling, creating free bilingual resources, collaborating with partners, and more, Compassion & Choices is addressing inequities and equipping all people to take charge of their end-of-life care.
