National Women's Law Center Webinars

Two free webinars for women and retirement security

Free Webinars: Women and Retirement Security

Between housing, a car, child care, education and the monthly grocery bill, meeting today's expenses can be really difficult. But in a difficult economy, saving for retirement can be even harder — and there's a lot of misinformation out there about Social Security and the benefits it provides.

 Don't panic! To help women prepare for retirement, the National Women's Law Center is hosting a two-part series of free webinars for individuals, service providers, and advocates. The first webinar focuses on women and Social Security, and the second webinar will dig deeper into pensions and savings.
