The Order of the Good Death is here to help you keep exploring with trusted information about human composting, practical resources, and ways to get involved in building a more meaningful, sustainable, and equitable deathcare system.
For more than a decade, The Order has worked to make a different death culture possible, not only through education and movement building, but through concrete legislative action: writing and consulting on human composting bills, providing testimony to state legislatures and Congress, and building grassroots public support that helps get those bills passed.
