Worried about what's ahead for your loved one with a developmental disability?
It's totally okay to feel unsure, especially when you are trying to plan for their future.
In this episode, I share Jamie's storyโa powerful reminder of why just having a Special Needs Trust might not be enough.
Jamie's parents did what they thought was best and set up a special needs trust, but when they were gone, Jamie's life got tough. It took her 3 years to find her way again. I don't want that for you or your loved one. That's why I'm talking about three necessary steps you can take alongside a Special Needs Trust. These steps can really make a difference for your loved one's future, even without you.
I also describe what a Special Needs Trust (USA) and Henson Trust (Canada) are, and why they are important to set up for your loved one with a disability.
Come join me in the video as I explain these steps. Let's face the future together with hope and possibility.
