Abstract	This learning module, which is part of a three-block series intended to help human service workers develop the skills necessary to solve the problems encountered in their daily contact with elderly clients of different cultural backgrounds, deals with communication and adjustment in the context of death and dying and their role in Ukrainian culture. The first two sections provide background information on the Ukraine and on Ukrainian migration from the Soviet Union to Canada and outline the module's general objectives. The next section examines some of the family and spiritual issues surrounding death and dying. Psychological reactions to death and dying are discussed from the standpoint of Ukrainian culture. The next section suggests some ways in which human services workers can facilitate adjustment to death and dying among their elderly Ukrainian clients. A list of selected readings and descriptions of two pertinent films are appended. (MN)
