AGN NA Newsletter #41 I October 2022 


In the U.S., October is recognized as Long-Term Care Planning and Financial Planning Month. These are great ‘excuses’ for AGN members to reach out to their clients and explore additional services that can be provided. AGN North America will use this month to give a post-busy season reboot to our educational content and member connections with the fall instances of Staff Training and the Fall Symposium. We hope to see you soon!
