After 26 years as an ordained minister in the Church, and a year of Hospice Chaplaincy, I have witnessed many families in crisis because they did not have conversations with aging parents to guide and direct critical decisions. I began this website to help gather resources and information about the conversations and choices that will need to be made along the way. This website is emerging as a resource for any people with aging parents, siblings of special needs adults, congregations trying to support caregivers, or baby boomers looking to plan their own futures.

I, also, have aging parents and a special needs sibling.  This work for me is both personal and professional.

I do family communication coaching. I'm a speaker, and workshop leader. I've been certified as an Advance Care Planning Facilitator and Instructor, which means I've had training to guide people and families through a process to reflect on, talk about, and record their decisions about the end-of-life.

I use my training in Conflict Resolution and Mediation to work with families, congregations, and professional associations to help people prepare for the realities of aging within extended families.
