Executive Director Elizabeth Johnson will present as part of a panel at the Oregon Gerontological Association Conference: Loss and Grief in Times of Disaster: Existential and Emotional Aspects of Being Mortal.

Elizabeth's presentation will focus on what it looks like to be a more death- and grief-literate culture (and individual) and why this matters, especially in the face of massive collective loss and trauma. She will discuss the role of an end-of-life doula in our communities and how their support can assist in the loss and grieving process. The presentation will address what is missing in our grieving process and what can we do about it.
