This program is brought to you by the Chicago Area Villages Collaborative, as a session of our End-of-Life Series.

During this virtual session from Brooke Benjamin, a partner at Inclusive Funeral Care (IFC), a lower-cost alternative to the funeral home system, we’ll learn about evolving trends and options in body disposition. Learn the key differences between traditional and green cremation and burial, emerging technologies in the death care industry, and innovative approaches like Organic Human Reduction (composting) as well as body donation to science. Whether you’re planning ahead or simply curious, this session offers valuable insights into meaningful, environmentally conscious, and science-supportive choices.

This program is brought to you by the Chicago Area Villages Collaborative. There are eight “Villages” in the Chicago area, all part of the International Village Movement—grassroots organizations of older adults designed to help people age and thrive in their communities. Each Village reflects its community and leadership.
