Belonging Scholarships
HALF SCHOLARSHIP
This work comes from our heart. As such, it is so important to us at the Conscious Dying Collective that those who long to be part of the conversation (to belong) and those who feel called to this work have the opportunity to share their voice from their own lived experience, regardless of their financial circumstances. We acknowledge the pervasive social injustice that creates unequal opportunity, especially financial inequality, and have created this scholarship as such. It is imperative that communities of color, immigrants, disabled persons, and LGBTQ+ persons are supported to serve as Conscious Dying Coaches and Sacred Passage End-of-Life Doulas. The Conscious Dying Collective is committed to dismantling disparity in representation in end-of-life Care: not only for those providing this care, but for the disproportionately affected people who deserve to receive dignified care at the end-of-life.
