| What is a Good Death? |
February 05, 2022 |

For Buddhist lay minister Caroline Yongue - the journey to change the way we think about death, dying, and the impermanence of suffering began decades ago. In this special report from Jess Engebretson of The Spiritual Edge comes the story of how Younge came to run a small green burial cemetery in Western North Carolina. The sanctuary is part of a larger project to change how Americans approach death and grief -- creating new ways to live with loss, from the ground up. This story was produced by The Spiritual Edge in partnership with USC’s Center for Civil Culture and Religion.
