About Planning My Way

Planning My Way, a project of the Cunniff-Dixon Foundation, is a comprehensive, no cost guide, that helps you and your loved ones approach difficult conversations and make informed health decisions. 

Only one person is truly qualified to tell your health care providers and your loved ones how you feel about end-of-life care issues and that's you.

Our Mission

The Cunniff-Dixon Foundation (CDF) is focused on enriching the patient-provider relationship near the end of life through education, collaboration and recognition.  Through Planning My Way, we serve the individual and their caregivers by guiding them through a comprehensive end-of-life care decision plan.

It is our hope that Planning My Way will help people to start and revisit difficult conversations about future care before it is too late. These resources can be used in the home or in clinical settings by social workers and other health care professionals. We hope, along with many other great resources out there, that Planning My Way will help individuals and families experience the kind of care, love, intimacy and quality of life that we all wish for ourselves and our loved ones.
