We’re proud to share that The Good Listening Project team recently attended the End Well Conference 2025 in Los Angeles – joining a rich convening of voices dedicated to how we live, how we die and how we care for one another. The conference brought together thought-leaders, clinicians, advocates and artists in a one-day exploration of truth, technology and transformation in end-of-life care.

This past year, our community deepened and expanded in meaningful ways – made possible by the generosity of our donors and the care, creativity, and commitment of our Listener Poets, alumni, and collaborators. Together, we continue to carry this work forward into new spaces and shared practices of listening.

In 2025, we partnered with healthcare organizations across the country to help amplify the voices of people working and receiving care within healthcare and caregiving spaces. Each collaboration reaffirmed our belief that listening is relational and archival: these poems hold stories that deserve to be remembered.
