Rebecca Brown
The deaths of her husband and her mother within the last several years bring Rebecca to this work. These very different experiences taught her that how we approach end of life has a profound affect on those around us, as well as on ourselves. She is committed to encouraging people to face death with openness and honesty, so they may live fully. She also knows how challenging this can be.
Rebecca has served NH as a journalist, editor, community activist, two-term state representative, and as founder and director of the Ammonoosuc Conservation Trust, the North Country’s regional, community-based lands conservancy.
Rebecca is certified as an end-of-life doula through the University of Vermont , and earned a certificate in Integrated Thanatology at the New York Open Center. She is an Interfaith Spiritual Counselor, educated through One Spirit in New York. She has served on many nonprofit and civic boards, and has started and operated both nonprofit and for-profit businesses.
