The next RCPA Member Update webinar is scheduled for Monday, April 26, 2021 from 2:00 pm–4:00 pm. We previously announced that Jen Swails, Budget Secretary, will be presenting and available for Q&A/discussion.
Following this presentation, RCPA has teamed up with Synergi Partners, the largest privately-owned tax credit and business incentive processer, to bring you the latest information surrounding the CARES Act Employee Retention Credit (ERC). The ERC allows businesses and non-government nonprofit organizations, including health and human service providers impacted by COVID-19, to receive a refundable, above the line Federal payroll tax credit.
Many human service providers are unaware that they may qualify for the ERC. During this webinar we will discuss eligibility, the expansion and extension of the ERC, compare the differences between 2020 and 2021 legislation, and showcase how the ERC can potentially benefit your organization.
Please register here to attend this webinar. If you have previously registered for this meeting to hear the Secretary Swails portion, you do NOT need to register again. We look forward to your participation!
The U.S. Department of Labor is seeking input on ideas for ensuring equity in employment policies and programs for people with disabilities from historically underserved communities.

It will also inform future programs and funding opportunities that equitably deliver employment services and supports to all.
Submissions are open through Monday, April 26, 2021. Visit here to submit your ideas.

Control over your finances involves making many decisions — for example, when you buy a car, choose an apartment, or negotiate a salary. But you don’t have to make those decisions by yourself. In fact, many of us use a network of support, including family, friends, and trusted advisors. In this webinar we will discuss the differences among supported decision-making, representative payee, guardianship, and powers of attorney.
