  • Parent Planning with Purpose Workshop

    Mills Springs Academy 13660 New Providence Road, Alpharetta, GA

    The Georgia Neurodiversity Chamber of Commerce (GANCC) presents Parent Planning with Purpose, a Hands-on Workshop for parents of adults with disabilities.

    Planning for the long-term needs of a loved one with a disability can be complex. Legal documents, trusts, government benefits, ABLE accounts and financial planning all need to work together—and understanding how they connect can help families avoid costly mistakes.

    The GANCC Parent Planning With Purpose Workshop brings a special needs attorney and a financial advisor specializing in disability planning together to help parents understand how these pieces fit together. Learn how to protect benefits, plan for the future and confidently guide your family’s planning team.
