The purpose of Death 101: A Workbook for Educating and Healing, 2nd edition is to provide an understanding of dying, death, and bereavement that will assist individuals to cope better with and understand their own death and the death of others. It enables us to examine cultural attitudes and assumptions about dying and death.

Different professionals, including counselors, teachers, clergy, medical personnel, and caregivers, may utilize these activities.
