The Dying Year Weekly EOL Doula Discussion Group has been meeting since March, 2020. Our purpose is to provide an open forum for us to network and learn about topics of interest to all interested, aspiring and experienced end-of-life doulas and caregivers, to grow into our highest selves. 

Thank you for showing up as we expand and challenge each other during these beautiful, exhausting times, while walking each other home.
