The International Association for Hospice and Palliative Care
At ELPC, we support the mission of the International Association for Hospice and Palliative Care. One of their main initiatives is equal access to opioids around the world for people who are seriously ill and dying. We are in close communication with them about how ELPC can support this global effort. Stay tuned for more information on what you can do.
For now, please read the following reports about the disparity in access around the world for people who need relief of suffering as they face illness and their dying. You can do something now to make a difference. Also, you can contact the International Association for Hospice and Palliative Care for more specific information.
