Special Financial Concerns
Caregiving often brings with it special financial needs that can be as straight forward as simply not having enough resources to pay for special services and supplies to as complex as administering Special Needs Trusts.

In this section you will find reports, articles, links and other resources to help you understand some of the options that exist to help you in this area.  As always, The Caregiver Foundation does not provide financial, legal or tax advice and you should always consult your own professionals before acting on any of the ideas or suggestions presented here.

For help with your individual situation contact us and let us guide you to appropriate resources and information.  Call 808-625-3782 or email us thecaregiverfoundation@yahoo.com.
Special Needs Trust
     Your estate plan is like the note you left for the babysitter back in the days when your children were too young to fend for themselves when you wanted to enjoy some time with just your spouse. Except that your estate plan has to cover the possibility that you're not coming back after a pleasant evening out.
    An excellent article for anyone, but particularly parents of special needs children was published by FORBES. "10 Tips For Parents of Special Needs Children". It touches on some of the most important points that need to be covered in that final note to the babysitter.
