Membership
Application
A Better Way Coalition is a
statewide end-of-life coalition open to professional
associations and organizations, citizen advocacy groups,
concerned individuals, health care and medical
facilities, hospices, educational institutions, related
government agencies, and local coalitions throughout
Idaho. Each member is committed to the mission and
contributes to the ongoing success of the Coalition.
A Better Way Coalition
provides knowledge, tools, and mechanisms to promote
broad-based, compassionate palliative care for
terminally ill and dying people and the frail elderly
who are completing life.

effective way to move from a death-denying to a
life-affirming culture is to promote professional
development and community awareness at the State and
local levels.
