What’s included in membership?

How much does it cost?
What is the community like?
5
Wake is not a passive or information-only space. Responsiveness is a community norm, not an ambition. And it starts with the founding cohort who are shaping that culture from day one.
Where does the community live?

Wake runs on Slack: a platform many already use. Once you're accepted, you'll receive an invitation to join our private workspace where all the conversations happen.
Can I refer someone?
7
Please do! Referrals are how we grow. If you know someone doing meaningful, innovative work in the death and dying space, send them to joinwake.com to apply. They will have the ability to add your name as their reference.

Yes. Wake is currently focused on US-based professionals. As the community grows we'll evaluate expanding, but for now we want to build something deep before we build it wide.
