I served as the Jewish Federation Fellow with the Jewish Cemetaries of Greater Cincinnati (JCGC) for 2022-23.
Death is one of the few experiences every human encounters. The JCGC is working to normalize one of the most important conversations most of us are not having; how they want experience their end of life.
This can be an uncomfortable conversation. The JCGC has partnered with DeathOverDinner.org to start the process. I organized the pilot dinner, from catering to conversation.
One of my long-term goals is to have a series of these dinners across different demographics.
