The Elaine H Baker Grandparents’ Lunch

November 16 @ 9:45 am - 1:00 pm

“You have to remember that grandparents have more to worry about. They worry about their grandchild,

and they worry about their child too.” Elaine H. Baker

 

Held each spring and fall, Community Autism Resources’ Grandparents’ Lunch offers grandparents the opportunity to hear professionals in the autism field share information on important topics. More importantly it offers them the chance to meet and chat with others who understand the unique joys and challenges that they as grandparents share.

 Join us to learn about TWO important resources: Special Needs Trusts (different from a typical Trust) and ABLE Accounts!!

These resources will provide for your grandchildren for their future!!

Each of these are vital for families of individuals with disabilities to know about to ensure that their grandchild does NOT lose essential benefits like their health insurance or social security as an adult.

We will be joined by Adam Hartwell, Director of Attainable Outreach – MEFA

And Wendy W. Weston, an attorney with Surprenant & Beneski, P.C. Attorney Weston has a passion for advocating for the rights of individuals with special needs, and specializes in creating customized estate plans that address the specific financial and legal challenges faced by families caring for loved ones with disabilities.

They will be going over what these plans are, why they are vital for Grandparents to understand!!

 For lunch we’ll be enjoying: Salad, Rolls & Butter, Pot Roast with Pan Gravy, potatoes, vegetable & Chef’s Choice Dessert
