Life Tree exists to raise awareness about the need to protect life, from its earliest beginnings to natural death. Life Tree's Executive Director, Elizabeth Wickham, Ph.D. and her associate, Ione Whitlock, have done extensive research on euthanasia and palliative care.

The site provides updates and information on the history and implications of POLST (physician's orders for life-sustaining treatment). This site is well worth visiting and educating oneself on the implications of the new health care legislation and its promotion of POLST.
