Return of the Guardians

Before COVID professional guardians, attorneys, paralegals, Washington Courts officials and others would gather in Kitsap periodically to meet each other and improve their professional skills. It’s been a while since the last gathering of that kind, but the Kitsap Provider Breakfast Network wants to help revive those important meetings and expand interest and understanding about guardianship.

On Tuesday, October 21st from 8:30 to 10:00 am at The Willows, 3201 Pine Rd NE #350, Bremerton, WA 98310, fellow breakfasters Lisa Marshall of Cascades of Bremerton, Elaine Morgan, professional guardian and Cherie Nurmi, reverse mortgage lender will produce a panel discussion on topics about guardianship.
