Our Mission

The Home Funeral Alliance exists to educate and empower families and communities to care for their own dead. We are a national education organization dedicated to family-led

and community-centered deathcare.

​

We advance ethical, accessible home funeral education grounded in respect for cultural diversity, personal choice, and community care. We support collaboration across professional, regulatory, and community-based systems while working to ensure that home funerals are understood as a real, legal, and accessible option.

​

Our volunteer-led structure reflects our commitment to sustainability, transparency, and relationship-driven change. Our work welcomes families, funeral professionals, advocates, and community members. We prioritize accessibility, inclusivity, and sustainability, knowing this work is relational and ongoing. We listen, adapt, and remain accountable to the people most impacted by deathcare systems.

We honor the many ways people care for their dead. Join us.
