More than 4,000 people with disabilities have over $40 million saved in the PA ABLE Savings Program (PA ABLE) for disability-related expenses. PA ABLE has built a network of family members, advocates, and disability resource providers it relies on as an important part of its success.

By saving with PA ABLE, you or a loved one can build a better financial future and live more independently. Remember that savings in a PA ABLE account:

• May be deducted from Pennsylvania state income tax.¹
• Do not affect eligibility for any federal needs-based programs with a limitation for Supplemental Security Income (SSI) benefits.²
• Can be contributed from a bank account, paycheck or Social Security benefits.³
• Can be allocated into various savings options, including an FDIC-insured checking account and six asset-allocation investment options.
• May be used to build savings or pay expenses such as rent, transportation, groceries, assistive technology, and much more.⁴
• Provide other benefits unavailable with other states’ ABLE plans.
