Summary: | During the 1975-1976 school year a project to survey the attitudes of high school students regarding death and dying was initiated in Illinois. As the data were reviewed, implications for religious leaders became apparent. This manuscript summarizes the pertinent findings and introduces some practical considerations for church workers. Their involvement in existing death education programs is encouraged, and suggestions are made regarding ways for stimulating additional attitudinal exploration within their own congregations. The religious professional is urged to meet these challenges creatively and sensitively. |
