Open Death Café

Home Hospice Association (HHA)aims to help communities develop resources to care for their dying where ever they call home. Much of the agency’s work also focuses on helping all members of any community die a ‘good death,’ however that may be defined. We believe in normalizing death through education to professionals, children, families, and communities and strive to destigmatize dying and death.

Home Hospice Association

Holding space for dialogue exploring our relationships with dying, death and grief.

Qualicum Beach Branch Library

In partnership with Vancouver Island Regional Library, and facilitated by Home Hospice Association-trained Death Doula Maleah Bajich, this Open Death Cafe brings people - often strangers - together to discuss death. This event doesn’t have any particular objectives or&nbsp;themes aside from increasing everyone’s awareness of death and exploring our relationships with death, dying and grief. As we grapple with what life looks like today, having a safe and non-judgmental space to talk &nbsp;about difficult subjects is so important and can have a significant &nbsp;impact both on how we live and how we die.<a href="https://www.homehospiceassociation.com/deathcafes" title="https://www.homehospiceassociation.com/deathcafes" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Learn more about HHA's Death Cafés</a>This event is happening in-person and is free to attend.
