WELC Mission Goals
- Educating the community about end-of-life issues and expanding awareness of the importance of these issues.
- Informing the public about available services related to end-of-life care by functioning as a clearing-house and a conduit for networking.
- Identifying the gaps in services and promoting the establishment of services that will fill those gaps.
- Promoting a community where the dying and their caregivers receive the medical, social and spiritual support they need.
- Advocating with policy makers and legislators for laws and regulations that will improve the end-of-life experience.
WELC is mindful of the need to reach all residents in our ethnically and economically diverse community and to communicate at all levels of health literacy.
