This Special Advance Care Planning (ACP) Edition can help you and your loved ones talk about and make a plan in advance so that your doctors and your family can know what you would want in a medical emergency situation. The Guide offers trusted and relevant information, complete with helpful resources and free access links to advance care forms by State, so you can choose the right one. Dr. Gloria Thomas Anderson, a university-level assistant professor and licensed social worker, wrote the first edition of The African-American Spiritual and Ethical Guide to End-of-Life Care in 2006 after receiving a grant to produce her research findings into a patient education resource to offer relevant information about end of life care specifically for African Americans. The Guide is a CDC-recommended advance care planning resource book. It walks readers through the practical and legal considerations in advance care planning and provides an inviting way to talk about what oneÕs wishes would be if they were unable to speak for themselves due to a life-threatening accident or illness.
