Join CLL staff and Catherine Durkin Robinson for frank discussions about dying. What are your fears about death? What does it mean to “get your affairs in order”? What is the dying process? We'll discuss physical, emotional, and spiritual suffering and comfort care for those three types of categories at end-of-life. We'll also talk about death doulas and how they comfort and support people with these issues and so much more.

Catherine Durkin Robinson is a death doula. She graduated from the University of Vermont's End-of-Life Doula program and belongs to National End-of-Life Doula Alliance. She was also a longtime hospice-trained volunteer and registered pre-need counselor in the state of Florida before relocating to Chicago in July 2022. Her varied career includes 30 years as a political organizer, 10 years as an educator at the high school and college level, and 10 years as a newspaper columnist in Tampa.
