▪ With a letter addressed to all congregations in the United States dated February 20, 1997, the Society’s Legal Department provided revised health-care durable power of attorney (DPA) forms to each congregation. The congregation secretary should therefore make sure that the master copies of DPA forms on file with his congregation are dated 1/97. If these revised forms are not in the congregation file, the secretary should contact the Society’s Legal Department. Unused copies of the old DPA forms should be discarded.
