Working Group to Improve Psychosocial Care Near the End of Life


	POLICY Legislators and funding agencies are finally beginning to pay attention to end-of-life issues; however, they have largely ignored psychosocial issues. Hence, we also are working to encourage key decision-makers to include psychosocial matters in legislation and grant language to emphasize the importance of these issues. We also provide consultation and analysis to other organizations working on end-of-life policy matters at both state and national levels.
