Amoruso & Amoruso LLP can guide you through the maze of government benefit programs available to help families provide for a special needs child, such as Supplemental Security Income (SSI) and Medicaid. We also can help you establish either a special needs trust or a supplemental needs trust. SSI is a needs-based program that guarantees an eligible disabled person a minimum monthly income to cover basic living expenses. Medicaid is a government program that will pay for many of an eligible disabled person’s health care expenses. We will guide you through the complexities of these government benefits, working with you to create a plan that protects your special needs child and gives you peace of mind.
