National Association of Estate Planners and Councils
Dear NAEPC Members and Guests:
 
Thank you for visiting our website.  
 
The board of directors and staff team remain grateful for the support of NAEPCs member councils and designees, sponsors, friends, and for the technology that allows us to stay connected each day.  As I begin my presidency, I am looking forward to a year that will allow our leadership to focus on both new and existing initiatives, including growing the recognition of NAEPC among councils and their members, and growth within the Accredited Estate Planner® designation program. 
 
This year we are planning to:
  • Return to hosting two day-long Regional Leadership Day events for council leaders in June
  • Provide all webinars hosted as part of the Robert G. Alexander Series on a complimentary basis and through our new online community
  • Host virtual events for estate planning council leaders and staff executives as part of the Council Leader Education Series
  • Continue to investigate new benefits for Accredited Estate Planner® designees
  • Take an in-depth look at the annual conference, a post-pandemic necessity
Our national network of estate planning professionals has truly never been stronger.  I encourage you to contact me at any time during the year with your questions and suggestions for how we can better serve you.  If you have an interest in serving on a committee of NAEPC and being a part of our success, please let us know.
 
Sincerely,
 
Lawrence J. Macklin, Esq., CPA, AEP®
2025 President
