Exploring end-of-life planning and decisions.
Join us for an important film and discussion hosted by Compassion and Choices, a nonprofit group working to improve care, expand options, and empower everyone to chart their end-of-life journey. This program will feature a showing of the award-winning film, How to Die in Oregon, a probing documentary into the "human right" to ending one's life legally and with dignity. The film is a charged and emotional first-person journey through the myriad of issues and emotions surrounding terminal illness and the right-to-die. Though the topic is a serious one, reviewer Molly Templeton comments that, "For a film about death, How to Die in Oregon is awfully life-affirming."
Following the film there will be discussion and an opportunity to learn more about available resources and support.
Cosponsored by Compassion and Choices and The Urbana Free Library.
Conveniently located at the corner of Race and Green in downtown Urbana.
