OUR VISION

A community in which Chinese Americans are able to face the end of life with dignity and respect.

OUR MISSION

  • Encourage dialogue among Chinese Americans about end of life issues so that it is viewed as a natural part of life.
  • Enhance advanced illness and end of life care by improving advance care planning and decision-making for Chinese Americans through community outreach education and volunteer, caregiver, and health professional training.
  • Empower Chinese Americans by improving access to end of life resources: producing original Chinese language materials or translating existing materials into Chinese and providing referrals to appropriate agencies.
  • Use a coalition model, where expertise and resources are shared, to insure Chinese Americans receive exceptional end of life care and services that address physical, psychosocial, emotional and spiritual needs.
