 "WRITING YOUR “LETTER OF INTENT” 

A more in depth follow up piece to the program offered last summer -

“Estate Planning for Families of Children with Special Needs”

at disAbility Connections ● 409 Linden Avenue ● Jackson 

Space is limited, reserve early to Holly Peterson 782-6054 

                * An important companion piece to a special needs trust is a 

                            "letter of intent" This is a document that actually ensures your 

                             trustee knows your child's functional abilities, routines, interests, 

                             and particular likes and dislikes. In addition to describing your 

                             special child, the letter of intent identifies specific doctors, services 

                             and resources that will help your child enjoy the highest level of 

                             independence and self-reliance. Amy Tripp will lead a workshop that 

                             will help parents beginning writing a “Letter of Intent” RSVP now!

                * Mark your Calendar for the June 18th Training - “Choosing a Trustee”
