For my entire professional career, I have believed in collaborative and synergistic efforts to achieve the best results for my clients. That is why I have been a long-time member of the Oklahoma City Estate Planning Council.
The Oklahoma City Estate Planning Council (https://www.okcepc.org) is the local council affiliated with the National Association of Estate Planners & Councils (https://www.naepc.org/). Our members are drawn together in a multi-disciplinary and collaborative effort to achieve excellence in estate planning for our respective clients.
Estate planning is an often overlooked element of financial wellness, it is estimated that over half of Americans – 56% – do not have an up-to-date estate plan!
National Estate Planning Awareness Week was adopted in 2008 by members of the U.S. House of Representatives, pursuant to House Resolution 1499 and has been championed and promoted by National Association of Estate Planners & Councils. National Estate Planning Awareness Week is designed to promote public understanding and awareness of what estate planning is and why it is such a vital component of financial wellness.
National Estate Planning Awareness Week occurs the third full week of October each calendar year. This year National Estate Planning Awareness Week runs from October 16-22. It offers the perfect opportunity to reach Americans on a regular basis with a reminder of the need for estate planning and how best to find a team of professionals to assist.
This year to promote estate planning awareness, the Oklahoma City Estate Planning Council is sponsoring an information booth at the Farmers Market at Scissortail Park (https://scissortailpark.org/farmersmarket/). This Saturday, October 15, 2022, from 9am to 1 pm, the booth will be staffed by local professionals in the estate planning related fields of attorneys, CPA's, trust officers, and financial planners. We will NOT be offering specific estate planning advice or soliciting clients, but will have helpful written general information which is useful to most of the public on estate and financial topics.
We hope to see you there!
