Managing the stress levels in your life is just as important as making sure your family member gets to the doctor’s appointment or takes their medication on time.

Family STAR Talks with the Expert – Understanding Special Needs Trusts

Join Family STAR for a conversation about Special Needs Trusts. Special Needs Trusts safeguard your personal assets and provide for the comforts of life that public benefits don’t cover. A Special Needs Trust is a legal contract under Federal law, in which someone (trustee) agrees to hold assets (money and/or property) for the benefit of a disabled individual. This type of trust provides the disabled individual with resources you can use to pay for special or supplemental needs while preserving your eligibility for government benefits, particularly Supplemental Security Income (SSI) and Medicaid. We will discuss what you need to know and how to approach the process in this presentation.
