The Final Chapter: Dying With Presence

What does it mean to be supported — emotionally, spiritually, and practically — at the end of life? Join us to explore how hospice care, death doulas, and community support are reshaping the way we approach dying. The session will include a screening of the acclaimed documentary The Last Ecstatic Days, followed by a moderated conversation with local advocates Aditi Sethi and Trish Rux.
