Join us on February 4 at 2:00 p.m. for The Impact of Address Confidentiality Programs on Extending and Servicing Credit, presented by Husch Blackwell.
Learn the where, what, and why of address confidentiality programs across the country—sometimes called “Safe at Home” laws.

What does this mean for your credit program and what are the issues you need to start thinking about? Join two excellent speakers for an engaging conversation on the topic: Patty Covington from Hudson Cook and Marci Kawski from Husch Blackwell.
