Immersive Learning Opportunities....
CSPE offers thoughtful, non-medical education for people seeking to better understand grief, caregiving, serious illness, dying, death, and bereavement.
Current learning opportunities include focused two-session courses throughout the fall season. Each course brings clear information together with the emotional, relational, and practical realities people encounter when life becomes consequential.

Free Community LearningÂ
Some of the most important questions about caregiving, dying, death, and grief arise long before we know where to take them.
Wednesday Webinars are free, one-hour online gatherings that make room for honest questions, thoughtful education, and experiences that are often difficult to speak about. No previous knowledge or professional experience is required.
