About The Order of the Good Death

Death is universal and inevitable. Unless you have some secret immortality formula you haven’t shared, every one of us will die. We believe our deaths should be supported—financially, emotionally, and culturally—in ways our modern culture and death services often fail to do. Everyone deserves a healthy relationship with mortality grounded in accurate facts, science, and history. The Order has fostered a national dialogue calling attention to the funeral industrial complex and the ways it impacts the public’s rights to care for their dead. To counter this, we’ve created a wide variety of resources enabling people to make accurate and informed decisions about funerals. We also provide financial support to nonprofits and individuals working to make a good death more attainable, and we work with legislators and other advocates to protect and expand access to sustainable, affordable, and meaningful death care.
