MO ABLE Aware
To save is wise. To save for assistive technology is even wiser. We here at Missouri Assistive Technology believe that one of the best ways to save is through a MO ABLE Account. MO ABLE accounts are investment accounts that allow qualified individuals with disabilities to save and invest money without losing eligibility for certain public benefit programs like Medicaid or SSI. More information about MO ABLE Accounts, including how to open one today, can be found at https://www.moable.com/.
