Topic 1: Paying Deceased Employees
Have you ever had an employee pass away and you didn't know what to do or you paid them as if they were still employed with your organization? During this session you will find out how to build a process when something like this happens and also understand the Federal and State rules for these types of payments.
Topic 2: Multi-State Payroll: Non-Tax Challenges
Payroll professionals navigate a wide range of nontax compliance requirements when their organizations employ people across multiple states. This session breaks down the essential information needed to stay aligned with state-specific employment rules, from wage and hour obligations to leave laws and reporting requirements. Attendees will gain a clear understanding of the regulatory differences that shape multistate payroll operations, giving them the insight needed to ensure accuracy, consistency, and compliance across all jurisdictions.

Outreach:

Second Story transforms the lives of children, youth and their families by providing safe havens and opportunities for them to grow and thrive. Their programs provide support at critical turning points in their lives.
- Second Story for Homeless Youth and Second Story for Young Mothers offer long-term housing as well as life skills support, counseling, and assistance with basic needs.
- Second Story for Teens in Crisis provides a short-term place to stay for youth in crisis, plus individual and family counseling.
- Second Story in the Community provides drop-in centers for families and after-school programs for youth who need more support outside their homes; many of them living in communities where human trafficking, violence, and gang activity are prevalent.
Though these safe spaces are the first step, they also work closely with youth and families to help them achieve their goals and work toward self-sufficiency, breaking cycles of homelessness, abuse, and poverty. All of their programs are located in Northern Virginia, though depending on the circumstance youth outside of our community can receive support as well.
Second Story was founded in 1972 and has a longstanding history of youth services and support. Their programs have grown and evolved as the needs of our community have changed, and they continue to work toward our vision of a community in which all young people are safe, live in a nurturing environment and have the opportunity to reach their full potential.
For 2026, WMAC has set a fundraising goal of $3,000.00. WMAC will match all donations made to Second Story through our website. Click here to be taken to the donations page.
