Young adults (N = 80) participated in advance care planning (ACP) as part of a death and dying course and submitted reflection papers on their experiences. These papers were analyzed using directed qualitative content analysis methods. Among the findings, participants almost exclusively chose a parent or other family member as a Health Care Agent. Twenty-five percent expressed concern about placing burden on their agent, but felt their advance directives (AD) would ease that burden. For many, previous experiences with death helped shape their wishes. This research has practice implications for recruiting more healthy young adults in completing their AD
