About the Course

The presenters will describe the new law and how it provides additional financial resources to beneficiaries to achieve independence. They will discuss how the Able Act works, restrictions and rules. They will provide examples of how beneficiaries who are on government benefits can use funds from both an Able Account and a Special Needs Trust to supplement their government benefits providing them with a higher quality of life.
