Embracing a New Year of Opportunity
January 2025
As the calendar turns to 2025, we're reminded the New Year is more than just a date on the calendar – it’s a symbol of fresh beginnings and renewed possibilities. Each January brings the promise of growth and the chance to set new goals. The New Year inspires us to take meaningful steps forward, whether it’s through pursuing new milestones or enhancing our financial health. As we begin 2025, there are so many updates we're excited to share in this newsletter, including a new investment option, another fee reduction and more!
Not Just Another NDEAM Newsletter
October 2024
As we are halfway through October, we're sure this isn’t the first time you are hearing about National Disability Employment Awareness Month (NDEAM). We love seeing all of the resources and tips come across our email, but we can assure you this isn’t just another NDEAM newsletter. Inside you’ll find employment myths debunked, defined steps to help employers and employees make the most of their workplace and unique tips specific to IAble.
Take Pride in Living with a Disability
July 2024
For many, Mia Petersen was known as the model for self-advocacy. An Iowa native, Mia worked hard to promote equal treatment of herself and all individuals living with a disability. When Mia passed in 2021, the loss was felt across the disability community. But it is up to all of us to continue her legacy by advocating for equality, celebrating the ‘ability’ in disability and, as Mia would say, “letting individuals with disabilities speak for themselves, and don’t let others speak for them.” In this newsletter, we share different ways you can do all of these. From celebrating Disability Pride Month to learning how to use IAble accounts to pursue financial freedom, we hope we can find the Mia in all of us and continue to make the world a more equal place.
Don't Miss It! IAble Webinar Coming April 2
March 2024
For seven years, IAble has been helping individuals with disabilities protect their money from asset caps. Over 2,500 individuals are saving with the Plan, but we know there are so many more who could benefit, and you can help spread the word! Start by sharing information about two upcoming webinars with friends and family members who could benefit from saving with IAble. Then, send them a link for this newsletter to help them learn about how tax-time can be a great incentive to saving, the difference between Special Needs Trusts (SNTs) and ABLE accounts and more.
New Savings Goals for the New Year
January 2024
As we start a fresh, new year, it’s the perfect time to look at our savings goals for the year ahead with fresh eyes. Are you saving for something in the short-term; something for this year? Are you saving for something in the long-term; something you may want or need in the years to come? For many of us, it’s both.
In this month’s newsletter, we’ll look at creating goals and some features of IAble to help get you there.
