CREATE ·2024 Grants ChallengeLifting People With Disabilities Out of Poverty
Many people with physical, mental and intellectual/developmental disabilities are completely dependent on government benefits to pay for their basic costs of living. But many of these benefit programs have outdated rules, such as the SSI asset limit of $2,000 at any one time, forcing SSI recipients to live in poverty. Our affordable, professionally-managed pooled special needs trusts provide an easy and legal pathway for people with disabilities to receive inheritances, and legal settlements without jeopardizing those essential benefits.
