WAVE Event: Developing Village Programs on Aging, Dying and Death -- Workshop # 2

Workshop # 2 -- Developing Village Programs on Aging, Dying and Death, via ZOOM.

WAVE is pleased to work with author, film maker and professor Chris Palmer of Bethesda Metro Area Village (BMAV) to offer a series of workshops that will give villages practical and effective tools to develop programs on aging, dying, and death. For several years, Chris has led a popular discussion group on these issues for BMAV.

The second workshop will be similar to the first workshop but more focused on the nitty-gritty of program implementation. This session will touch on over-medicalization, hospice care, and voluntary stopping eating and drinking (VSED). We will also discuss different approaches villages could use, including coaching, buddy systems, retreats, and hands-on activities.

Access: Zoom link will be emailed to registrants
