Topic: Fundamentals of Pooled Special Needs Trusts and the Disbursement Process

Update- We're going Virtual

Due to the rise in COVID-19 and Omicron in the area, the Board decided this membership meeting will be a virtual program via Zoom, rather than meeting in person at the Norfolk Yacht & Country Club.

In lieu of meeting in person for this event, we are sending all pre-registered members an electronic $25 Taste Unlimited gift card for you to enjoy during our event! To receive the gift card, you must register by Thursday, January 13, 2022 at noon.

For our members who have already registered for our in person meeting, you will receive the Zoom link to join the meeting.
