About this Event

Sending a child off to college is one of life's biggest milestones. Most families focus on dorm supplies, tuition, etc., and they completely overlook something just as important: the legal and financial documents that protect your student the moment they turn 18.

Once your child leaves for college, they are legally an adult. That means without the right paperwork in place, you may not be able to access their medical records, make decisions in an emergency, or help manage their finances - even as their parent.

Join us for a free, one-hour presentation that walks families through exactly what they need to have in place before move-in day.

You'll learn:

  • Why turning 18 changes everything - legally and financially
  • The essential documents every college student needs (and most don't have)
  • How to protect your student in a medical emergency, even from miles away
  • Simple, affordable steps you can take right now - before they leave

This is a must-attend event for parents of high school seniors, incoming freshmen, and any family who wants peace of mind before drop-off day.


FREE to attend. All ages are welcome.

Light snacks will be provided.


Doors Open: 5:00 pm

Presentation: 5:30-6:30 pm
