About the Facilitator

Dr. Penny Armstrong

Legacy Passage

Penny Armstrong was drawn to End of Life study at the University of Vermont Medical School in 2020. Here she was able to combine her academic training with deeper understandings about  emotional, spiritual, and physical needs of people who are nearing death. Calling on the qualities of empathy, personal strength, and compassion, she began work as a certified end-of-life doula.  Growing public interest in this unique calling opened the way for the Legacy Passage Training Institute.
