Talking about money is one of the hardest parts of planning for the future. Whether you’re a facilitator or a family member supporting someone with a disability, knowing how to navigate these conversations can be invaluable.
The Planning and Facilitation Collaborative (PFC), a P4P initiative, is offering a FREE virtual forum designed to support and empower facilitators and families to approach financial discussions with greater ease and confidence.
Join the PFC on April 1st at 7:00 p.m. EDT for the Breaking Down Barriers forum, as they bring together a panel of experts and family voices to share real experiences and insights, and explore how having better money conversations can lead to stronger planning and greater peace of mind.
Key topics will include:
- Exploring our relationship with money and why having conversations about finances is so challenging.
- Understanding the importance of including siblings in conversations about money and planning.
- Tangible tools for improving financial dialogue to help your family move forward.
- Balancing family dynamics, and the diverse and often competing needs of multiple children, including a child with a disability.
Panelists:
- Natasha Knox, Founder, Financial Planner, Alaphia Financial Wellness
- Jill Teeple, Executive Director, Partners for Planning
- Jesse Auguste, family member, sibling with lived experience
- Nicole Callander, family member with lived experience

The PFC is a national online community that Partners for Planning launched in 2023 for people who care about building capacity to offer quality, value-based future planning and facilitation supports to people with developmental disabilities and their families. With access to a growing library of courses and resources, members can network, share knowledge and experiences, and learn from one another through conversations, educational opportunities, and special events.
The Break Down Barriers virtual forum also marks the launch of a dedicated financial resources space within the PFC.
