My Care, My Plan: Speak Up Sonoma County
My Care, My Plan: Speak Up Sonoma County is an Advance Care Planning community initiative. It aims to encourage everyone age 18 and older to contemplate, communicate about, and document their health care wishes.
Our initiative is a project of Health Action, a collaborative community effort to get citizens involved in creating a healthier Sonoma County. My Care, My Plan links organizations and individuals from the private, public, nonprofit and volunteer sectors, including local health care and social service organizations, to raise awareness about the importance of Advance Care Planning. The Sonoma County Human Services Department Adult and Aging Division provides support for the initiative.
My Care, My Plan is directed by a dedicated group of community leaders who volunteer on a steering committee. Additionally, physicians, nurses, social workers and administrators from all local health systems, nonprofit executives and other community leaders have helped to develop the curriculum for the initiative’s educational sessions on Advance Care Planning.
My Care, My Plan is a member of the Coalition for Compassionate Care of California, a collaborative of organizations and individuals that promotes high-quality, compassionate care for all Californians who are seriously ill or approaching the end of life.
Don’t forget to invite your neighbor, your club president, your friends or to invite people who have no idea what Sonoma County offers older people, their families and caregivers to our next meeting.
