“How I Write an Ethical Will”

This 90-minute course is available for 1.5 CEUs through the Continuing Education Institute of Illinois. It’s also a great session if you’re a caregiver, patient, or curious participant. Purchase the course and then I’ll be in touch to schedule it at a convenient time for you! Each session also includes an “Ask a Doula” Q&A at the end where I’ll answer all your questions.
