A Third Party Special Needs Trust is most often established by the parents/guardians of an individual with a disability, although it can be established by anyone on behalf of this individual. The trust can be funded at any time after establishment, but most commonly funds come from the grantor’s estate after passing.

The Pooled Special Needs Trust is the only trust in CT that an individual over 65 can contribute their own income or assets into in order to retain a lifetime benefit from those assets/income, and still qualify for public benefits like Medicaid or waiver programs.

The PLAN of CT Charitable Trust is a fund which allows individuals of any age who have a disability to apply for one-time needs-based assistance through a grant to purchase a service or resource meant to enhance the individual’s quality of life.

A Self-Settled Special Needs Trust is used when a disabled individual under 65 receives a direct inheritance, a back payment from Social Security, a settlement, or a lottery win that would affect their eligibility for state or federal benefits. A Self-Settled trust can protect these assets as well as entitlement eligibility. "PLAN of Connecticut has been our Son Chad’s trust for over 20+ years now.

PLAN has been great in helping to provide items to make life's challenges easier for Chad. We are able to bring Chad to his doctor appointments and on vacations because they got us an adaptable van. It is a relief to know that PLAN can help us when Chad is in need for medical supplies or even just items for enjoyment.

Everyone at PLAN is always pleasant to talk with and compassionate. We couldn't ask for a better trust." "Luke at the PLAN of CT assisted me through the process for my mother with compassion, caring, dedication and professionalism.

I truly appreciated him." "PLAN of CT has been wonderful to me. Every person I've spoken to has been kind and understanding.

Whenever I need assistance, they are always right there to help. Their professionalism and proactive responses have helped me immensely. Especially, when I have an emergency situation.

There's no one else I'd trust with, well my... trust fund." "Once I discovered the Pooled Trust it became possible for my brother to remain in his home and receive the benefits he needs.

GREAT PROGRAM, staff is always courteous, friendly and extremely helpful." "I've been working with The Plan of CT for a little over a year. When I first started I had numerous questions and concerns on how the whole process worked.

Everyone at the Plan of CT I encountered not only answered my questions, but did so in a very professional and patient way. Prior to joining the PLAN of CT I had used my own spreadsheet that worked for me to keep track of expenses and payments. Because they welcomed my spreadsheet it saved me significant time not having to learn a new system.

I would highly recommend The PLAN of CT." Whether you are a family or a business, you make the difference to our organization and those we serve by contributing financial support, time and/or expertise. There are various ways to support PLAN of CT.
