I have switched from USCCA to Attorneys on Retainer owing to developments I have found reported. I hope to have an official endorsement link on the page in the near future. In the mean time, look them up by name: Attorneys on Retainer.
The USCCA has great materials & continuing-ed opportunities, but if you are counting on their legal defense, leftist-prosecuters found a legal-loophole to cause their insurers to dump your coverage, cutting out the legal representation promised. The USCCA SAYS that they "still have your back," but it's non-material & moral-support only. I have a wife who can wave a set of pompoms if needed. But, things are only getting crazier in our society, & I may need legal support in this increasingly unstable day & age when self-defense has become punishable as if it's a criminal act.

So, construction & lease-questions will delay opening of the second location (40 Main Street in Boones Mill) until further notice.
Operation at 1407 Kenwood Blvd SE in Roanoke will be the only place I am teaching until things clear up. I will increase classes at my primary local in Roanoke to accommodate any new students who needed Mondays & Wednesdays if you contact me.

Changes have occurred. Class is opened & operating in only one location:
Tuesdays & Thursdays, 7p-9p
1407 Kenwood Blvd SE, Roanoke, VA

The update: My location at 40 Main Street in Boones Mill is not opened yet due to construction issues which has created lease-questions.
