Compassion and Choices NY
Compassion & Choices is a nonprofit organization that is known widely across the country. C&C is the nations leading organization working to improve patients rights and choices at the end of life. C&Cs focus is on advocacy for and ensuring access to end of life options.
In New York State we currently have a bill pending, The Medical Aid In Dying Act, that would allow a terminally ill, mentally capable adult, to request a medication from their physician that would allow them to die in a peaceful way if they choose to do so. Our bill is modeled after the Oregon Death with Dignity bill that has been in effect for almost 20 years.
In NY, our campaign is quickly gaining momentum and we are looking for interns who are just as excited about the excitement surrounding our cause as we are. This internship will be an opportunity to work with our 47,500 supporters across the state to grow the base of volunteers and create speaking opportunities for the C&C staff to educate on the bill and help our supporters share their stories.
