Experts will help you navigate the areas of advanced health care directives; charitable income & tax planning; being a trustee and executor; and more. The workshops take place over seven consecutive weeks. Classes are offered to you as a public service. No charity will solicit you for a donation. No financial or insurance products will be sold.
