Their project Engage with Grace: The One Slide Project was launched in 2008 with the hope of getting people talking about end of life care. They created a single slide with 5 questions "designed to help get us talking with each other, with our loved ones, about our preferences."
Furthermore they are asking people to share this One Slide — wherever and whenever they can in blogs, in presentations and in conversations.
