Many people wish to arrange their affairs to live well in their later years and ensure that their
end-of-life plans follow their wishes. Planning AHEAD is a class from UW-Madison Division of
Extension, created to address most aspects of end-of-life planning. In 1-hour in person
classes, Extension Educators guide participants through examining heath care wishes,
financial responsibilities, legal requirements and documentation, distribution of personal
property, end-of-life decisions, dealing with grief, and the emotional ramifications of all the
above. The program is designed both for those of all ages who want to prepare for their own
passing or are in the process of losing a loved one and are dealing with the transition. This
course features a planning workbook to help organize the tasks and documents associated
with end-of-life decisions.
