Saving with Hawai‘i ABLE 101 Webinar

Hosted by the Hawai'i State Council on Developmental Disabilities, please join us to learn more about the Hawai‘i ABLE Savings Program in a presentation tailored for Hawai‘i residents. Hawai‘i ABLE lets people with disabilities and their families save money without getting disqualified from their state and federal benefits. Money saved in an ABLE account doesn't count against the asset limit for benefits like SSI, SNAP, Section 8 and more. Plus there are tax advantages!

To qualify for ABLE, you have to meet two criteria: your disability is severe enough to qualify you for SSI/SSDI (but you don't need to be currently receiving either) AND your disability started before the age of 26. Qualifying disabilities can include both I/DD, physical disabilities and mental health conditions.

Learn everything there is to know about Hawai‘i ABLE including who is eligible, how it works, what you can save for and more. These sessions are designed to provide you ample time to ask questions.

If you have difficulty registering for this event please contact Daintry Bartoldus of the Hawai'i State Council on Developmental Disabilities, at (808) 586-8100.
