SUMMARY:*VIRTUAL* Death Cafe
DESCRIPTION:At a Death Café\, anyone can participate! We gather in a virtual environment\, to openly and tenderly talk about death and dying. The conversation is facilitated and is a completely open and safe space to share your experiences\, feelings\, thoughts\, and ideas on any topic related to death and dying. There is no set agenda. This is a discussion group\, not a grief support group\, although many people share about the loss of loved ones. So bring a cup of tea and join us on Zoom in this supportive and welcoming environment. \nParticipation is free\, but registration is required.
