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.
