Request Client Services Support
If you are a qualifying individual seeking Medical Aid in Dying (MAiD)/Death with Dignity (DWD), OR you are seeking support for Voluntary Stopping Eating and Drinking (VSED), please complete our form to be assigned a Volunteer Client Advisor. One of our volunteers will reach out to you within 3-5 business days after your form is submitted. After submitting the form, you will receive an email confirming that we have your request. Please check your spam/junk folder if you don’t see it. If you need assistance completing the form, call us at 206-256-1636 during our regular business hours. We understand some requests are urgent, but it can take up to 5 days to be connected with a volunteer. Please indicate on the intake if your request is urgent. We appreciate your patience.Â
While you are waiting to have a volunteer assigned, we recommend that you ask your medical providers to provide a hospice referral. You should also ask your medical and hospice providers whether they will participate in Medical Aid in Dying/Death with Dignity.
