Empowering people with disabilities and their families to save for the future, while protecting eligibility for public benefits
ABLE plans change the way individuals with disabilities and their families build financial wellness today and plan for a bright financial future by empowering saving and investing for the added expenses that come with having a disability, while preserving access to federal means-tested benefits.
ABLE accounts foster person-centered independence, build self-reliance, encourage employment and improve quality of life.
The ABLE Savings Plans Network Empowers Members to:
- Improve and expand utilization of ABLE programs.
- Influence the setting of national policy affecting ABLE programs and those saving for the needs of people with disabilities.
- Enhance the communication, cooperation and effective administration among network members.
- Foster a professional relationship and the exchange of ideas and information among network members

“Having an ABLE account now means financial security. I just put a down payment on an accessible vehicle with the money I saved in my ABLE account. I don’t know what I would do without ABLE.”
