Our Goals

We actively support the NEH's "Common Good" initiative in our effort to: 

• introduce the rich and diverse ways that the humanities can engage the public on difficult yet crucial topics, such as our mortality

• stimulate ongoing public conversations about "Dying in an Age of Health"

• educate the public about advance-care planning
