A member survey conducted by NHPCO in the spring of 2013 indicated that more than 70% of members desired assistance and/or resources around the issue of community based-palliative care. NHPCO listened and has embarked on a program of resource development in the areas of education and advocacy. In this session you will learn what has happened thus far and what is being planned. Come and add your voice: let NHPCO know what you need in order to begin, expand or improve your palliative care services.

Learning Objectives:
1. Discuss NHPCO's plans for a robust educational program regarding community-based palliative care
2. Describe the "new" NHPCO palliative care membership
3. Recommend future activities for NHPCO's palliative care programming
