Quarterly Voice


The Quarterly Voice (QV) is an important communication medium for the DignityUSA membership.

Underwriting. Currently, QV is mailed to the entire membership. To keep these USPS mailed editions coming, DignityUSA seeks members willing to underwrite this quarterly publication. $16,000 will underwrite the costs of producing and mailing the QV for a full year. One or many can share this cost. If you are interested in helping to underwrite the QV, contact the DignityUSA national office at 800-877-8797, e-mail info@dignityusa.org, or at the national office mailing address found at left.

Please designate your donations as “QV underwriting,” and please advise whether or not you wish to have your name acknowledged in the Quarterly Voice as an underwriter. Thank you for your consideration and support.

Opting-out of receiving mailed hard-copy In an effort to become more environmentally-conscious and to save on printing and postage expenses, we are offering members the opportunity to opt-out of receiving hard-copies in the mail. You can read the QV in the on-line version. Please send an e-mail with the subject heading "Opt-out of mailed QV" to info@dignityusa.org.

“As part of the civil marriage service—prior to stating that the marriage is legal—these words are spoken: 'By the power vested in me by the Commonwealth of Massachusetts...' Those words alone echo in our hearts remembering the thunderous applause which sends shivers up your spine. We had not dared to hope for this level of acceptance.”
