ABLE NATIONAL RESOURCE CENTER: Tennessee Launches Country’s Second ABLE Program
On June 14th, Tennessee became the second state to offer ABLE accounts (accounts that allow people with disabilities to have a savings account without jeopardizing their benefits). In Tennessee, the program is known as "ABLE TN." Accounts can be used for disability-related expenses that will increase and/or maintain a person's health, independence, or quality of life. These accounts are open to both residents in Tennessee as well as across the country.
