Having a conversation about death and dying isn’t typical dinner table chat, but it probably should be.

Kimberly Paul is teaming up with UVM End of Life Doula Program Director Francesca Arnoldy and Bob Gramling, M.D., D.Sc., Miller Chair of Palliative Medicine at UVM’s Larner College of Medicine, to create a community conversation about hospice, palliative care and the role of end of life doulas. The panel will be moderated by NPR's award winning senior reporter, Nina Keck.

Seating will be limited for the “Truth-Sharing and Story-Catching: Honesty and Compassion at End-of-Life” event. The event will begin with a reception at 4:00 p.m., followed by the panel discussion at 5:00 p.m. and then a book signing. Parking can be found at this link.

For those who cannot attend in-person, the panel will be live streamed from 5-6pm. Click HERE to watch the live stream.
