What We HeardMet with organizations, legal representatives and individuals in Nebraska and nationally to discuss needs and expectations for an ABLE savings plan. Discussed range of accessibility and design issues as well as investment and banking needs.

• Persons with disabilities have hopes and dreams just like any other sibling, friend or family member.

• The goal of an ABLE plan is to create financial independence to help account owners become an integral part of their community and as self-sufficient as possible.

• Parents and grandparents should have an easy way to give monetary gifts to all their children and grandchildren.

• Parents want the security of knowing that when they pass, their child, no matter what age, will have financial resources.

Designed with the CommunityThe Enable Savings Plan was designed with the disability community, not for the disability community. We did not assume we knew what the community wanted or needed.

Based on their feedback, our mission became to develop a plan:

• That could be understood and used by a broad-range of individuals with disabilities and their legal representatives with minimal paperwork;

• That was low cost and flexible to appeal to individuals with varying investment goals and time horizons;

• Provided educational resources including financial literacy tools; and

• Encourage both formal and grassroots, social media efforts to keep account owners and the disability community informed and educated.
