What is the Coalition?
The Connecticut Coalition to Improve End-of-Life Care was founded in 1999. We are a state wide coalition that seeks to improve care for the dying and their families and to ensure that everyone has information about and access to compassionate, quality end-of-life care. We advocate for professional and institutional standards, continuity of care, patient and family satisfaction, and an appreciation of spirituality, religious and cultural diversity. We foster an atmosphere of inclusion, open discussion, and creative thinking.
