CANA is your resource All Things Cremation

The Cremation Association of North America (CANA) is an international association of over 3,700 members, comprised of funeral homes, cemeteries, crematories, consultants, and suppliers. As the growing demand for cremation requires the industry to re-imagine its approach to death care, CANA is the leader in this area of expertise. We can share the industry knowledge and member experiences you need to maintain a successful business.

Membership is voluntary but members are eligible to make use of all CANA resources, receive discounts on programming, contribute to the future of the profession through association leadership service, and more.

Non-members can still access valuable information from the CANA website. Explore our online resources and consider CANA Education, online or in-person, to take advantage of CANA’s professional cremation curriculum and earn CE.

With decades of experience helping cremation professionals from all segments of the industry, CANA is uniquely positioned to help you grow your careers and advance your business. These pages provide information about the value of membership, continuing education courses that grow your expertise, and many resources to improve business operations and expand knowledge of industry trends.
