  • Going with Grace 2026 Alumni Summit Tiered Scholarship Registration Pricing

  • One of the key principles at Going with Grace is justice. Death is a social event, and how we die is a culturally constructed process that is informed by social power dynamics that are not equal. In response to this, our team practices deathwork as a form of activism that rallies against systems, standards, and structures that keep marginalized communities on the margins all the way through to the end of their lives.

    As part of our commitment to justice and liberation work, we've prioritized making our programming as accessible as possible to death doulas from different communities, diverse backgrounds, and lived experiences. We believe that our deathwork community should reflect the broadest demographic of folks we can hope to serve from the wider community and we are thrilled to offer a limited number of registration spaces at different pricing tiers.
