Compassion & Choices is a health care startup based in the United States, founded in 1980. The company's slogan, "Compassion & Choices improves care, expands options and empowers everyone to chart their end-of-life journey." encapsulates its mission. The company works to reduce suffering and provide control to individuals in their final days, advocating for expanded options for compassionate dying.
Compassion & Choices collaborates with individuals and organizations to make aid in dying a recognized option across the medical field and in more states. Additionally, they aim to increase patient control, reduce unwanted interventions at end of life, and ensure access to all end-of-life care options.
Given the somber nature of its focus, Compassion & Choices also seeks to normalize accurate, unbiased language in end-of-life discussions, emphasizing the term "aid in dying" over "assisted suicide". They envision establishing aid in dying as a prime motivator in voter decision-making to support the expansion of the end-of-life choice movement and take on a leadership role. As of now, there is no available information on their last investment or the involved investors.
