With Dignity seeks to safeguard human dignity as America
ages, and to provide more compassionate care for the seriously
ill. Aging with Dignity seeks to educate Americans on the impending
aging phenomenon, and to advocate for new attitudes and approaches
to aging. By improving pain management; increasing the effective
use of advance directives; and promoting hospice care, Aging
with Dignity seeks to change the manner and quality of care
at the end of life while encouraging communities to combat the
greatest disease afflicting the chronically ill---loneliness.
