Coda empowers easier, early end-of-life conversation enabling you to Take Responsibility; Choose Your Own Way and Embrace Life

The Coda Alliance is dedicated to helping you comfortably deal with one of life’s most difficult situations – starting your end-of-life conversation.

At Coda, we are all about helping you choose your own way – in life and at the end-of-life.

  • It’s about helping you take responsibility to make decisions regarding what you want – before an unexpected, or anticipated, end might happen.
  • It’s about allowing you to embrace life by living the life you want.
  • And, it’s about providing you with peace-of-mind by enabling you to make your own decisions about how you want die when the time comes.

We’re here for you with engaging resources, research and tools, like our multilingual Go Wish cards, enabling easy, trusting, “what do I want” discussions at any stage of life. Working together, we help you overcome this tough, but most necessary conversation -- making it simple for you to make sure that your families, professionals and caretakers honor your wishes and help you embrace the life you want.
