Winston-Salem LGBTQ Pride Festival
| Date: | Saturday, October 18, 2014 |
| Time: | 10:00 AM - 5:00 PM |
| Description: |
Wake Forest School of Law's OUTLaw is working with the Campaign for Southern Equality to provide a free Health Care Power of Attorney workshop at Winston-Salem Pride on Oct. 18. From 12 p.m.- 4 p.m., volunteer attorneys and law students will assist community members in filling out a Health Care Power of Attorney document, and volunteer notaries will be present to notarize the documents. Health Care Powers of Attorney allow individuals to name the person who will make their health care decisions if they are ever incapacitated. These documents are particularly important in the LGBT community, where immediate family members might not be supportive, spouses might not be recognized by the state of North Carolina, or transgender issues might not be respected by someone's next of kin. Students and others volunteering are also invited to join OUTLaw at a post-Pride mixer with the Divinity School. |
