The Euthanasia Prevention Coalition works to Protect Your Life.

The Euthanasia Prevention Coalition (EPC) offers several ways to protect you from euthanasia and assisted suicide.

EPC asks you to share your personal stories related to euthanasia or assisted suicide. Many people have family or friends who died by euthanasia or assisted suicide under questionable circumstances. By sharing your story, you open the door to other people sharing their story.

1. The Life-Protecting Power of Attorney for Personal Care will protect you when you cannot make medical or personal care decisions for yourself.

This legal document enables you to appoint someone you trust to be your Power of Attorney for Personal Care (language differs based on jurisdiction). This document makes clear statements about euthanasia, assisted suicide and medical treatment options and guides medical practitioners and the person you have appointed to make medical and personal care decisions that protect your life, when you are unable to make decisions for yourself.

The Life Protecting Power of Attorney uses a basic format that is legal within most jurisdictions and also has available specific formats for jurisdictions with special requirements.

Canadians purchase the Life-Protecting Power of Attorney from EPC for $10 + taxes. 

Americans purchase US State versions from EPC-USA for $15  (Purchase link) or contact EPC at: 1-877-439-3348 or info@epcc.ca.

2. EPC suggests that you write a straight forward letter to your physician explaining that you oppose euthanasia and assisted suicide and have that letter added to your medical file.

3. The Do Not Kill Me wallet card is available from EPC upon request or with a donation. The card provides further protection when sign and date, with a witness, on the back of the card.

EPC will send you Do Not Kill Me wallet cards by contacting us by email: info@epcc.ca. or at: 1-877-439-3348. 

Euthanasia Prevention Coalition yearly friendship fee is $30 (individual) or $50 (group). Pay for your friendship online.

 

Donations can be made to EPC by (Online Donation Link) or (Paypal Donation Link) or send E-transfer donations to:  info@epcc.ca or call the EPC office at: 1-877-439-3348.

EPC works with the Compassionate Community Care charity (CCC) that offers practical advice and information for people when they or a loved one has questions related to medical treatment options or are concerned that a loved one is considering or being pressured to be killed by euthanasia or assisted suicide.

CCC developed a community based Visitor Training Program to provide training for you to visit people who are lonely and isolated. CCC also developed an Advocacy Training Program to help you to provide medical or personal care advocacy for people you know. CCC has also established a calling service to contact people who are lonely, isolated and vulnerable. Contact CCC at: 1-855-675-8749.
