Building a Better Financial Future
for People with Disabilities
and Their Families
We are Leaders
We’re the first and only national organization exclusively focused on the financial health and wellness of people with disabilities. Our unique and continually evolving approach allows us to be influential and to change behavior and policy at a local, state and national level.
We are Connectors
We’re only as strong as our partnerships. We value collaboration among all stakeholders across both the public and private sectors, including people with disabilities, government and financial institutions, community nonprofits and institutions of higher education.
We are Builders
We’re working to transform the lives of people with disabilities. We don’t have chapters or paid memberships, but with our partners, we touch over a million people a year through research, training, technical assistance, demonstrations and public policy development.
