FCA\'s Biennial Conference was hosted this year by the Austin Memorial and Burial Information Society. AMBIS volunteers were top-notch, and we couldn\'t have done it without them. Dozens of our participants said this was the best FCA conference ever put on! Topics included:

  • Being Green —Burial Without the Box
  • Home Funerals —Bringing the Funeral Back to the Family
  • FCA Affiliate Lobbying — Pushing Back for Funeral Consumers
  • Taking on Wall Street ‘Deathcare’
  • Mortuary Price Lists — What’s Legal and What’s Not
