BUILD Savings to help with future care-Without loosing benefits/support
Financial Empowerment for People with Disabilities
.A Future Worth Planning For.
For too long, people with disabilities were unable to save for the future without risking the loss of critical benefits. Programs like Medicaid and Supplemental Security Income (SSI) placed strict asset limits, meaning even modest savings could lead to disqualification.
This forced countless families into financial limbo—not because they lacked motivation, but because the system discouraged preparation. That’s where ABLE accounts come in.
What Are ABLE Accounts?
Achieving a Better Life Experience (ABLE) accounts are tax-advantaged savings tools created specifically for individuals with disabilities. With an ABLE account, individuals can save up to $100,000 (or more, depending on state rules) without affecting their SSI, Medicaid, or other benefits.
Funds Can Be Used For:
Rent and housing
Transportation and vehicle modifications
Education and job training
Assistive technology
Health and wellness expenses
Daily living needs
All while remaining eligible for critical public programs.
Why This Matters
Financial security is more than dollars in a bank—it’s about independence, stability, and peace of mind. ABLE accounts open the door to a future where individuals with disabilities can plan, dream, and thrive—without fear of losing support.
