Death Care Within
The Grief House Death Care Collective

Many of us have been raised in cultures that interact with death fearfully and combatively.

 

This estrangement from death is new. Humans lived closely and well with death for most of our history on this planet. Finding our way back into community with death can feel tremendously stabilizing and empowering.​

​

Though our culture distracts and disconnects us from this process, we do, still, live in community with people who can meet and hold us as we learn to walk this path. The Grief House Death Care Collective connects you with compassionate, practiced, diversely knowledgeable support while you and your loved ones move through death, funerals, final dispositions and beyond.

 

Sometimes, when we or someone we love comes face to face with death, understanding what different death care workers have to offer and what needs we hope for them to meet can be too much. Sometimes we need help getting help.​ 
 

In both Atlanta and Portland we have Death Care Stewards who are familiar with resources and supports, both within our Death Care Collective and beyond. Using our Earthly Houses and Moon Cycles as guides, they will get to know your and your family's particular needs, now and upcoming, and work to support you in finding individualized ongoing care from the right practitioners. ​In their company we hope you’ll find a path to deeper, richer connections to this season of life.

​

We can be at peace with death again. 

We can teach each other how.
