NYAble is offering a FREE webinar!

NY ABLE allows individuals with disabilities and their families to save for qualified disability related expenses, without limiting their ability to benefit from federal benefit programs such as SSI, SSDI and Medicaid.

NY ABLE offers multiple investment options including a checking account and debit card option allowing individuals with disabilities to maintain their independence and have quick and easy access to their own money. Earnings on investments can grow tax-deferred and are tax-free if withdrawals are used for qualified disability expenses.

For additional information about NY ABLE, or to open an account, please visit www.mynyable.org.

Join this FREE webinar on May 28th at 6:00 PM to learn more about this valuable resource.

When policymakers hear a personal story about a challenge someone faces, they sometimes feel more moved to help.

Share your story (or your loved one's story) about a challenge as an autistic adult at the link below, and let us know if you want the story to be used for advocacy.

If so, focus on one main challenge you've had in adulthood that you would like policy change on (maybe more support in the home, maybe better housing options, etc., and describe how that area has been a challenge for you. Describe what that's been like, what the costs are to you, and how it makes you feel). You are welcome to submit a video as well!
