Events

On Monday October 6th at Noon, join Client Services Manager Rebecca Hudson of End of Life WA as she shares information about your legal rights regarding Advance Directives in a one-hour presentation plus Q&A time. You'll learn about living wills, POLST, Durable Power of Attorney, and more. Rebecca will explain these legal documents in which a person specifies what actions should be taken for their health if they are no longer able to make decisions for themselves because of illness or incapacity. The durable power of attorney for health care is the person designated to carry out those instructions when a person is unable to speak for themselves.

Do you have your end-of-life planning Ducks in a Row? This is the first part of our three-part workshop series focused on getting your affairs in order -- it's never too early to plan! Join us in person at Mercer Island Community and Events Center or online via Zoom. This event is free and open to the public. We encourage attendance at all three parts, but it is not required.
