Your Life. Your Death. Your Choice.

End of Life Options

End of Life Choices California believes that all Californians diagnosed with a terminal illness should have factual information about, and access to, all legal options concerning their end-of-life wishes.

California Law

Medical Aid in Dying is a legal option in California, allowing a physician to prescribe life-ending medications to a terminally-ill and mentally-capable adult who qualifies for MAiD under the law to control the timing of their death.
