Louisiana-Mississippi Hospice and Palliative Care Organization (LMHPCO)

“Judgment and love are opposites. From one come all the sorrows of the world. But from the other comes the peace of
God Himself.” -- A Course In Miracles


Since 2014 Kelly Ann Brown Foundation has been honored to support the work of the Louisiana-Mississippi Hospice and Palliative Care Organization’s (LMHPCO) prison hospice program. December 11-15, 2017, LMHPCO sponsored the 2017 Caregiver Conference at the Louisiana State Penitentiary at Angola. Among the topics addressed were: “We Honor Veterans’ Needs by War Trauma,” “Meditation and Contemplative Practice: Looking Inward, Seeing Outward,” and “Grief, Bereavement & the Incarcerated Caregiver.” 96 inmate volunteers and 14 professional staffers from four prisons attended the conference. Angola’s prison hospice program has transformed that prison from a formerly notoriously violent prison into a national model. Other correctional facilities are modeling their end-of-life care on their wonderful work. We look forward to hearing about their continued success.
