Good Morning

It looks like this year’s assisted suicide bill may be getting some traction so I wanted to reach out to DDCs that have addressed this issue in the legislature.

Did the Council take a formal position?

What did you use for resources/do for education?

What did the self-advocacy organization do?

Thanks so much for your help.
