State Law Library to host health care directives workshop

CHARLESTON -– The State Law Library will present a free "brown bag" workshop titled "Health Care Directives" at noon on Wednesday, Aug. 27.

The workshop will be held in the State Law Library, Building 1, Room E-404 in the East Wing of the State Capitol Complex. It is open to the public, and no registration is required.
