Studio DDLA

End-of-life navigation and support helps individuals and families understand options and make informed decisions during serious illness and dying. Services include advocacy, help communicating wishes to family and clinical providers, and guidance on care choices, hospice, and end-of-life resources. Support is available to people with cancer at different stages, including after diagnosis, while considering clinical trials or immunotherapies, and when planning for end of life. The practice also provides education and advocacy around Medical Aid in Dying under California's End of Life Option Act. Classes, mentorship, community activities, and events are offered. The work is led by Jill Schock, a death doula and end-of-life advocate in Los Angeles.
