Rabbis, chaplains, and social workers are often called on to provide spiritual care near life's end. Whether in response to serious illness, advanced cognitive or physical decline in old age, or unexpected, tragic violence, health care professionals and clergy need to respond compassionately and effectively with families facing spiritual, emotional, and existential crises. Clips from Wurzweiler School of Social Work's 鈥淪pirituality Near the End of Life鈥� Conference in July 2019 include leading clergy, chaplains, and social workers offering their knowledge, skills, and wisdom to assist professionals seeking to better integrate spiritual care into their professional and community work. Introduction:

• Gary Stein, JD, MSW, professor of social work, director of gerontology and palliative care and chair of the continuing education program
• Dr. Lynn Levy, associate professor and the assistant director of the rabbinic program for gerontology and palliative care
