One family, every federal lever.
Supporting a loved one with a disability means keeping track of programs that each have their own rules, income limits, and paperwork — and where one wrong step can cost a benefit. This volume gathers the federal tools in one place, in plain language: what each one is, how it works, the trap that commonly costs families, and where to verify the current rule. Like every TROVELL volume, it is a reference, not advice — it never tells you what to do, and it points you to the official source and to a licensed professional for your own situation.
The topics it covers
Twelve federal benefits, protections, and planning tools — each explained in plain language with its official source.
Companion Workbook
Enter the beneficiary's details once on the Profile tab; the trackers, calendar, and quick-reference all update from it.
Read a real page
Tracks the 2026 ABLE contribution limit ($19,000 base, plus a working-beneficiary bonus up to the federal poverty level), your balance against the $100,000 SSI exemption cap, and a five-year projection — so the account grows without tripping the $2,000 SSI asset limit.
26 U.S.C. §529A · verify at ssa.gov and ablenrc.org. Educational illustration; not tax advice.
Every rule links to its source
Federal amounts and rules change every year. Every figure in the volume and workbook is documented to its agency source and verified as of 2026.
