CaringMatters' Community Education Series
CaringMatters' Community Education Series is designed to develop community knowledge and skills around end-of-life and grief related topics that can be applied to daily life. Our meaningful educational events and discussions help build a caring and compassionate community. Workshops are held four times each year.

Community Workshops
CaringMatters' staff are available to provide free community workshops as public service to groups who want to learn more about various aspects of end-of-life care, grief, advance care planning and many other related issues. Staff and affiliated experts can address churches, schools, businesses, and civic organizations. This service is part of the organization’s effort to facilitate dialogue and educate the community about end-of-life issues that everyone must face at some point in their lives.
