<p> As the nation ages, many adolescents will become caregivers for a burgeoning population of elders. These adolescents will have had little training and information on how to address a loved one&rsquo;s psychosocial needs. This thesis evaluated if a week-long &ldquo;What Gives Your Life Meaning&rdquo; (WGYLM^&copy;) program increased awareness of and improved attitudes about palliative care (PC) among high school students. </p><p> Fourteen (14) high school students participated in this week-long study by viewing clips from the movie <i>Being Mortal</i>, participating in a discussion with a palliative care professional, listening to an interview with an adolescent caregiver, and answering questions relative to end of life. The students&rsquo; accurate definition of palliative care as care focused on quality of life increased from 57% to 78%. Results suggested that a school based WGYLM^&copy; program would benefit adolescents&rsquo; knowledge and attitudes about PC.</p><p>
