​Goodbyes are never easy, even for people in the death field, yet here we are...saying goodbye to two of our founders.
​
Jean Budge has steadily and consistently managed all the MNDC finances from the beginning. Jean has been a thoughtful, reflective, and consistent member and we are so grateful to have worked with her. May she continue to thrive as a marriage and family therapist. We are fortunate that Jean has agreed to help the MNDC obtain non-profit status (in process) this year. You will be missed, Jean! Thank you!

Jane Whitlock is a starter! From the beginning, she brought passion and heart to everything she did (and still does). She was recently hired at Providence Place to create a doula program to serve their hospice clients. May her groundbreaking work continue to inspire and lead the way. We will miss you dearly, Jane! Thank you!

Anti-Racism Resources

​“The beauty of anti-racism is that you don’t have to pretend to be free of racism to be an anti-racist. Anti-racism is the commitment to fight racism wherever you find it, including in yourself. And it’s the only way forward.” ~  Ijeoma Oluo ​
