Mission

To educate qualified individuals in practical, peaceful ways to end their lives, offer a compassionate bedside presence and defend their right to choose.

Vision

That any competent person unbearably suffering an intractable medical condition has the option to die legally and peacefully.

FEN’S Principles

A mentally competent person with intolerable suffering or pain has the right to end their life, choosing the timing and persons present, and should be free of any restrictions by the law, clergy, medical profession, friends or relatives.

We do not encourage anyone to end their life and are opposed to anyone encouraging anyone to end their life.

We do not provide the means for self-deliverance and we do not assist in self-deliverance.

We support research for safe, inexpensive medications or other safe, certain and painless methods that would allow for a peaceful self-deliverance.

We will vigorously defend our beliefs and practices in a court of law when necessary.
