Mission
THE INSTITUTE FOR PATIENTS' RIGHTS CONDUCTS RESEARCH, EDUCATES THE PUBLIC, AND WORKS TO EXPAND AND IMPLEMENT TOOLS OF EMPOWERMENT FOR OLDER ADULTS, PEOPLE WITH DISABILITIES, MARGINALIZED PERSONS, AND THEIR FAMILIES TO COMBAT POLICY AND MEDICAL PRACTICE THAT DEVALUES SOME PEOPLE'S LIVES, PUTTING THEM AT GREATER RISK OF DEADLY HARM. OUR MISSION IS EQUITABLE HEALTHCARE REGARDLESS OF AGE, HEALTH, DISABILITY STATUS, OR SOCIOECONOMIC CLASS. WE BELIEVE THAT EQUAL HUMAN DIGNITY SHOULD BE APPLIED FIRST AND FOREMOST IN HEALTHCARE FOR THE BETTERMENT OF SOCIETY.
