Interface Boulder, Colorado

The Rev. Catharine Harris will introduce The Conversation Project of Boulder County. The Conversation Project encourages people to have a conversation with loved ones about what is important to them as they die. Not only is this important to do individually, it may well be important to you as a clergy person or psychotherapist in your work. Encouraging such conversations with families (however configured) is important as a way to prevent surprise, suffering, and family disagreements at the time of death. Conversations prior to death can make the difference between bringing a family together at death rather than fracturing a family around final decisions. This session will invite attendees to consider questions from the Conversation Starter Kit and share with one another as a way of learning about the Project. Please download the Starter Kit (www.theconversationprojectinboulder.org) and bring it with you. There will be other handouts.
