Narrative

The Special Needs Resource Network at The Moody Street Group, LLC is dedicated to serving the special needs community through educational seminars, workshops, and other events where parents of special needs children are introduced to the resources available to them in their communities and the major challenges in providing financial support and security for special needs children are addressed. Taking care of an individual with Special Needs can be a lifelong commitment and perhaps beyond. Caring for a loved one with Special Needs requires careful thought and planning. Though many of the steps are typical estate planning actions, such as preparing a will, establishing powers of attorney and establishing a guardianship where necessary, extra care must be paid to financial arrangements. In particular it is important to make arrangements in a way that helps preserve means-tested benefits such as Medicaid or SSI. With numerous complex state and federal laws that may impact caring for an individual with Special Needs it is important to seek advice from an attorney experienced in this area. The goal of The Moody Street Group Special Needs Resource Network is to conenct with as many Organizations, Advocates, and other Professionals to foster awareness of strategies to improve quality of life for loved ones who need special care.
