How to Use the Community Action Guide

This guide provides specific action steps that community coalitions, healthcare organizations and individuals can engage in to improve end-of-life care locally. The guide can be used in conjunction with the Fall 2001 release of Finding Our Way: Living with Dying in America. The suggested activities are in addition to the many local and national efforts already under way in the movement to improve end-of-life care.
