About The Presentation

In recognition of Black History Month, this educational presentation is designed to educate and engage the community around the importance of estate planning as a tool for protection, wealth preservation, and generational progress.

Many individuals and families have little to no education of estate planning or may believe it is only for the wealthy. This presentation breaks down those barriers by providing clear, accessible education on what can be protected, how planning works, and why proactive steps matter especially within the Black community.

This event aligns with Black History Month’s focus on preserving heritage and legacy, highlighting how intentional planning can ensure that families’ stories, values, and assets are passed down with purpose.
