A strong majority of voters living with disabilities support medical aid in dying—according to the only known polls on the issue that oversampled people living with disabilities, the February 2014 Purple Poll of Connecticut, Massachusetts, and New Jersey.

- Disability Rights Oregon (DRO)
- Disability Rights New Mexico
- The Legislative Coalition for People with Disabilities (Utah)
- The Arc New York
- Resource Center for Independent Living (Utica, New York)
