Episode 12: Protecting Benefits & Autonomy: A Guide to National Make a Will Month
Hello and welcome to another exciting episode of the Eye on Autism podcast, brought to you by Brightway Living & Learning – formerly Developmental Disabilities Institute. I’m your host, Victoria Palacio, the Director of Marketing and Communications for Brightway Living & Learning in for Dr. Mike Romas. August is National Make a Will Month, a time when everyone is encouraged to secure their legacy and protect their loved ones’ financial future and personal autonomy.

Here to break down the legal complexities is Wendy Sheinberg, a partner at Rivkin Radler who specializes in Elder Law, Guardianship and Special Needs planning.
