ABLE NATIONAL RESOURCE CENTER: Massachusetts Launches ABLE Program
Massachusetts recently launched its program for ABLE accounts (accounts that allow people with disabilities to have a savings account without jeopardizing their benefits). In Massachusetts, the program is known as "The Attainable Savings Plan." Accounts can be used for disability-related expenses that will increase and/or maintain a person's health, independence, or quality of life. The Attainable Savings Plan will be available to people with disabilities nationwide.
