ABLE United helps Florida’s disability community save for a better life experience

Prior to 2015, individuals with disabilities receiving benefits from programs like Medicaid and “Supplemental Security Income” were only able to save two-thousand dollars in assets. Now, they can become savers and investors for the first time, with “ABLE United”—Florida’s disability-savings program. Director John Finch has more… “It’s important to prioritize financial wellness. With an ‘ABLE’-account, Florida’s disability-community can do so—without impacting the benefits [that] they might rely on now, or in the future. But, we know [that] saving money can feel daunting; that’s why we provide opportunities for individuals to save what they can, when they can. Set up automatic, monthly contributions—or start a gifting-page, and save with the help of friends and family. Funds in an ‘ABLE’-account can be used for everyday living-expenses—or for long-term savings-goals, like a car, housing, or assistive technology. Start saving with ‘ABLE United’ today.” To learn more about Florida’s qualified “ABLE”-program, visit “able-united”-dot-com.
