National Estate Planning Month

October is National Estate Planning Awareness Month!

National Planning Awareness Month falls during the third full week of October, every year. The U.S. House of Representatives established this observation in 2008 to help the public understand what estate planning is and why it is such a vital component of financial wellness.

This year National Estate Planning week is October 19-25, 2026.

This is a perfect time to reflect on your loved one's legacy and ensure their future wishes are clearly outlined.

Look for estate planning councils across the country to host community outreach events to increase awareness.
