Dying to Know!! — A Moderated Discussion Group on Death and Dying (In-person)
Monday, December 9
6:00 pm - 7:30 pm
Registration Required Below Join us in a judgment-free environment where participants, often strangers, can openly engage in discussion on the topic of death and dying. “Dying to Know” is a moderated discussion group created to explore and normalize conversations around death and dying. Mickey Nelson and Sue Broudy, certified End-of-Life Doulas, will guide open conversations around mortality. Participants are invited to attend, listen, and share in the conversation as they feel comfortable. All perspectives are welcomed and respected. “Dying to Know” is not a grief support group or counseling session, but a space for sharing conversations and questions about dying and deepening our awareness about death. Group meetings will be held on the second Monday of the month. About Our FacilitatorsSue Broudy was certified as an End of Life Doula in 2016 with INELDA (Int'l. End of Life Doula Association).
