Who would speak for you if you couldn’t speak for yourself? Advance Care Planning (ACP) is a process which helps you think about, talk about, and write down your preferences for future health care. While it is not an easy topic to consider, it is important for every adult 18+ to have a health care directive – a written plan for loved ones and healthcare providers to follow – so that your wishes are known in case a severe injury or illness renders you unable to communicate.

Includes tools and training videos related to advance care planning. Developed by the Metro Medical Society, Minnesota and in 2022 became part of Light the Legacy.

About the organization: Honoring Choices Minnesota is committed to helping every adult Minnesotan understand how to engage in the process of advance care planning, and training health care professionals to skillfully navigate and guide ACP conversations.
