Do you find yourself thinking more and more about what happens when you’re no longer able to care for your young adult/adult with a disability? Are you thinking that your other offspring will support them when you’re gone?
Please join Ellen Cookman of Cookman Law for a special discussion about our “super siblings” and their involvement in future planning for our loved ones with disabilities.
Topics covered include:
- Insights on navigating unique family dynamics while planning for the future
- How super siblings may be involved in future planning without being overwhelmed
- The what, when, and why of the special needs trust – and who should manage the trust
- What other financial planning tools are available to secure their sibling’s future
- How to support, empower, and protect these incredible family members
