About Us

Ohio End of Life Options is a 501(c)(3), non-profit that was founded in 2016. This organization is non-partisan and non-sectarian. Ohio End of Life Options raises awareness and provides fact-based education about Medical Aid in Dying laws. It aims to have legislation enacted in Ohio that is modeled after Death with Dignity Laws in Oregon, Washington, Vermont, California, Colorado, Hawaii, New Jersey, Maine, Washington D.C., and New Mexico.

Ohio End of Life Options also raises awareness about palliative and hospice care and believes the terminally ill should have access to all health care options at the end of life. Additionally, Ohioans are encouraged to explore end-of-life wishes, talk to those who need to understand them, and then document those plans.

Our Mission:  To raise awareness and provide fact-based education about Medical Aid In Dying laws for the terminally ill in Ohio in order to achieve the enactment of such a law.

Our Vision: All Ohioans will have the knowledge and power to decide and to direct their own end-of-life care when terminally ill.  The values, beliefs, and preferences that each person brings to these decisions will be protected by laws and rooted in compassion.
