ABLE Accounts: Benefits of Having One and How They Work

  • 3-4pm

Services for People with Disabilities (SFPD) presents a free Community Education Workshop
ABLE Accounts: Benefits of Having One and How They Work.

ABLE accounts can offer individuals with disabilities a path toward greater financial independence by providing an ability to plan, save, and spend money on services, products, and education while preserving their benefits (eg: Medicaid, SSI, SSDI).
