ABOUT LAUREN:
One of the earliest Death Doulas/Midwives to offer active support and in person mentorship in Northern Indiana, Lauren Richwine recieved her initial training with the Earth Traditions Program. She is a facilitator through the “Respecting Choices Advance Care Planning” Program with Parkview and is currently a member of the National Association of Certified Death Midwives (NACDM), the National End of Life Doula Alliance (NEDA), and the National Home Funeral Alliance (NHFA).
In response to a cease and desist issued against her business by the Indiana State Board of Funeral and Cemetery Service in early 2023, Lauren has teamed up with the Institute for Justice to defend this important work. Together they have filed a federal lawsuit against the state of Indiana for infringing on her first amendment right to free speech.
