Join us to learn about the Achieving a Better Life Experience (ABLE) Act
and how a Maryland ABLE <https://www.marylandable.org/> account can help
people who are blind, those with low vision, and other qualifying
disabilities to save and invest for the future without jeopardizing
federal, state, and local benefits such as SSI and Medicaid. Attendees will
learn about the enrollment process, tax-advantaged savings, and investment
options, how to use the ABLE account to pay for qualified
disability-related expenses, and the account management process.

NO REGISTRATION IS NEEDED!
