READY WHEN YOU AREN'T

Resources

D3 is one part of taking care of the people you love. These resources are the rest — registries to join, screenings worth getting, places to put your name. None are required to use D3, but each is worth fifteen minutes of an afternoon.

Things-to-gather checklist

A printable, one-page-per-topic checklist of the cards, statements, and paperwork most people want on hand before they sit down to organize their affairs. Most of it lives in three places: your wallet, the filing cabinet, and the kitchen drawer with the warranty stack. Walk around the house and check things off as you find them — works with or without a D3 account.
