The Natural Deathcare Collaborative was formed a decade ago to help bring under one umbrella advocates for family-led, community-based deathcare, home funerals, green burial, funeral consumer rights, reclaiming traditional cultural death practices, and natural commemorative and memorial arts to coordinate educational efforts and offer a broad spectrum of choices available in after death care. The NDC offers trainings in natural death care for families, community care circles, funeral service providers and other organizations, as well as educational programs locally and nationally.
