✨ UPCOMING WEBINAR ON PERSONAL PLANNING! ✨

We are hosting a FREE Webinar on Personal Planning and Representation Agreements with FSI-BC on August 20, and everyone is welcome!

🗓️ Date: Wednesday, August 20
🕕 Time: 6 – 7 pm (Pacific Time)
📍 Registration: https://shorturl.at/xHXZv

The webinar will discuss how to arrange for your support needs now and in the future. We’ll share real-life stories from people in BC who have benefited from legal documents like Representation Agreements. Important topics covered include:

• What is personal planning, and how does it differ from estate planning?
• Do I need more than just a Will and Power of Attorney?
• What happens if I can’t make decisions for myself?
• How can registering my legal documents help in emergencies?
And more! We’ll also have a Q&A session to answer your questions.
