Planning Death - The Necessities

This class provides a clear, approachable introduction to the essential documents involved in end‑of‑life planning. It is designed to help individuals and families understand what these documents are, how they function, and why they matter—without offering legal advice or instruction.

Participants will learn the purpose and role of key documents such as wills, advance directives, living wills, durable powers of attorney, POLST/MOLST forms, beneficiary designations, and digital legacy plans. We will explore how these documents fit together, what decisions they support, and how to begin organizing them in a way that reflects personal values and reduces stress for loved ones.

Grounded in real‑world examples and clear explanations, this class empowers learners to navigate end‑of‑life documents with confidence—focusing on understanding and preparation rather than legal interpretation.
