What is a Death Café?

Originating in the UK in 2010, the goal of a Death Café is to encourage conversation about the one reality we all share, but a topic few wish to talk about. The Home Hospice Association joined this movement in 2016.  It holds one of the most significant community outreach positions for our chapters as it is a way in which we can move towards our mortality.


Organized by

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.
