Parents of children with special needs face many challenges when preparing for the time when they will no longer be around to care for their special needs child. Whether this is due to the parents’ own disability or their death’s, the responsibility will fall on the child’s siblings, other family members and the community.

Improper planning can also jeopardize inheritance set aside to care for the special needs child as well as the government benefits they might be receiving.

Consult with a Financial Planner to discuss the impact a Special Needs Trust can have on protecting the child’s government benefits and preserving their inheritance to improve their quality of life. Your Planner can also assist you in determining the level of funding required to meet the child’s current and future need’s as well as identifying some of the many different resources available to fund the trust.
