- **Event Description**: Talking about death won’t K*ll you—
it can help you make informed decisions about end-of-life plans for yourself and others.

Many people die in ways inconsistent with their values and wishes.  Planning ahead provides an opportunity to think about and communicate what you do and don’t want at the end of life. 

Join us—Saturday, April 25, 1:00-4:00 pm, First Unitarian Society of Ithaca, 306 N. Aurora Street, Ithaca (enter on Aurora St. between the church and the Parish House)—to develop the practical know-how needed to plan well for the end of life. The format is open, so drop by for a few minutes or stay for a few hours.

Staff from local organizations and beyond can help you explore:  
•	advance care planning: health care proxy &amp; living will
•	patient rights including medical aid in dying
•	accessing palliative care &amp; hospice care
•	funeral planning 
•	green burial 

In addition to speaking with staff at the different tables, there will be a mini-talk (10-15 minutes) on each topic starting at 2:00. 

While we originally suggested parking in the Seneca Street Parking Garage, it has been closed indefinitely due to structural damage. Unfortunately, street parking downtown on Saturday is no longer free. There is free parking throughout Fall Creek (starts a block north of Unitarian Society).
