Planning Ahead — An FCAEM Workshop Series for Members

To help you write the plans you want to have in place for when you die.

YOU MAY HAVE BEEN THINKING, now and then, about making plans. You’ve probably thought it would help your family if you gave them a thorough plan about your wishes for after-death care along with information and instructions for your family and your worldly goods.

But, as with so many of us, you may not have written anything down…you haven’t gotten it done.

Now, by participating in this FCAEM workshop, you have a chance to make your ideas, your thoughts and your wishes become a known reality in the form of a finished plan. Here you will have the support and structure to create and finish the plan, to get it done.

The workshop will meet on Zoom on the first three Wednesdays of November, (Nov. 1, 8 and 15) from 3:00-4:30. In addition, workshop leaders will be available for brief consultations over the phone for one hour on Monday afternoons and Thursday evenings.

We will use the Funeral Consumers Alliance workbook, “Before I Go, You Should Know,” to guide us and as a place to record information.

This workshop is free as a support for members of FCAEM. When you joined, you would have received a copy of the guidebook we’ll be using, but they can also be purchased separately for $15, which includes shipping.

If you aren’t currently a member, now’s a good time to become one! The lifetime membership of $40 includes the guidebook that will be used in this workshop.

This workshop is limited to 10 participants. It will be repeated periodically.
