About the 360 Life Plan Series
This event is part of the 360 Life Plan Series, a collaborative, interdisciplinary initiative designed to prepare Canadians for the full arc of retirement and aging.
The premise of this series?
We are all living longer - and dying longer - so how do we embrace the realities and avoid preventable mistakes?
Unless death comes suddenly, our physical and cognitive abilities will decline.
Without clear documentation, simplified affairs, trusted caregiving support, and a team for our personal care and estate management, the consequences of improper (or non-existent) planning can be significant and even devastating.
The 360 Life Plan Series exists to change that.
