Updates to Wespath.org
Recent changes to wespath.org have been implemented to create a dedicated space for plan sponsor resources.
The bottom box on the homepage labelled "For Plan Sponsors" has been renamed to "For Current Plan Sponsors"; this will be the primary link for Wespath plan sponsors to connect with resources, portal links, forms/docs, news and more.
The dropdown menu item on the homepage has been renamed "Plan Sponsor Services" and it links to a menu dedicated to information for prospective plan sponsors.
Any questions, please contact Tony Prestipino, Director, Plan Sponsor Relations at tprestipino@wespath.org.
