Protecting Your Child's Future: Understanding Special Needs Planning

What would happen to your child if something happened to you?

It's not an easy question, but having a plan can bring peace of mind for both today and the future.

Studies show that fewer than half of parents of children with disabilities have a long-term plan in place for their child's future care if they become unable to provide for them.

Join us for our next Parent Advocacy Support Group as Attorney John Stokes of PlanWise Law discusses Special Needs Planning, ABLE Accounts, and how these tools may help families prepare for the future while protecting benefits and creating greater peace of mind.

It's never too early to begin learning about the options available to your family.

You don't have to have all the answers. Sometimes the first step is simply starting the conversation.

Saturday, June 20
2:30 PM – 3:30 PM
