Join Disability Employment Technical Assistance Center (DETAC) and the ABLE National Resource Center for an insightful webinar, ABLE Accounts: A Pathway to Financial Empowerment for People with Disabilities on Tuesday, April 8, 2025, from 3:00-4:30 PM ET.
April is National Financial Capability Month and #ABLEtoSave Month! Understanding how to manage money is crucial to financial independence for everyone. Come join the Disability Employment Technical Assistance Center (DETAC) to learn about Achieving a Better Life Experience (ABLE) accounts. An ABLE account is a tax-free savings and investment account owned by a person with a disability. In this webinar, the ABLE National Resource Center (ABLE NRC) will provide an overview about eligibility requirements, contribution limits, and how ABLE funds can be used. The webinar will then transition to highlight the innovative strategies the state of Kansas used to increase public awareness and adoption of ABLE accounts, which can be a model for other states. Finally, we will hear from an individual with lived experience on how she uses her ABLE account to help her succeed at work and live independently in the community.
