Upcoming Events

Founder and President Faye Girsh and Board Secretary Christie Golem will present a history of our organization and an overview of end-of-life options, including Advance Directives, Medical Aid in Dying (MAID), Voluntarily Stopping Eating and (VSED), Final Exit Network (FEN), and the Assisted Dying clinics in Switzerland. Participants are encouraged to ask questions and share comments.

Whether you’re new to the Right to Die movement, or a long-time Hemlock member, we believe you’ll find this back-to-basics meeting interesting and informative. We hope you’ll invite others who may be interested in learning the fundamentals of Hemlock and the right to choice, dignity, and control at the end of life. Please register in advance. The Zoom link will be emailed to you in a confirmation from Zoom. Check your spam folder if you don’t find it in your inbox.   Click Here to Register

Join us at Silver Lining Cremations, located at 421 S. Andreasen in Escondido, to celebrate Dia de Los Muertos with like-minded Hemlock friends. We’ll watch the richly animated, Academy Award winning Disney Pixar film Coco about a young boy who travels to the Land of the Dead and discovers his family’s history and traditions. In honor of this holiday, we’ll dine on traditional Day of the Dead treats and discuss the theme of death and remembrance revealed in the film. Tickets are $15 per person to cover the costs of this special event. The film is rated PG for “mild violence” which may be frightening to young children.   Get your tickets
