Please join us for the second in a series of training programs for parents of children with disabilities presented by the Seattle University School of Law, Washington PAVE and The Arc of King County, in conjunction with The Dussault Law Group. This program will focus on concerns arising following public secondary-school education, such as transition, public benefits, wills and estate planning and special needs trusts.

Space is limited and previous programs of this type have been over-subscribed; therefore, pre-registration is strongly suggested. No registration will be permitted on the day of the event.
