Our Speakers' BureauPlanning a conference, symposium or debate on euthanasia, assisted suicide or other so-called "end of life" issues?
The best way to have a complex and open discussion is to get a full range of informed speakers on the topic. If you don't have the disability perspective represented, you aren't really exploring the full range of issues.
NDY has nationally recognized experts in the public policy debates on assisted suicide, "end-of-life" decision making and related issues.
Diane Coleman, J.D, president, can talk about the history and basis of the disability opposition to legalization of assisted suicide and euthanasia, and outline key legal developments impacting the public policy debates. Her analysis focuses on the problem of disability discrimination and the importance of equal protection of the law.

Stephen Drake, research analyst, can talk about the history and politics of the euthanasia movement, infanticide, euthanasia practices across the world, and the issues surrounding nonvoluntary withholding of lifesaving treatment. In addition, Stephen also is an expert in analyzing media coverage of "right to die" and disability issues, especially where they intersect.
