ABLE today recently attended the National Association of State Head Injury Administrators - Nashia national conference in Portland, Maine — an inspiring gathering of professionals, advocates, and families dedicated to improving life after brain injury.

Our conference team included ABLE today's Eric Ochmanek; Chuck Saia from the NH Governor's Commission on Disability; Lauri Maloney from Ascensus; and Michelle Robinson from Bangor Savings Bank.

Throughout the conference, we connected with leaders across the disability and rehabilitation community to share resources, build partnerships, and explore how ABLE accounts can support financial recovery and long-term independence.

Eric was honored to speak on the ABLE Accounts panel alongside Leslie Quarles from the University of Massachusetts’s Institute for Community Inclusion; Drew Karhan, Ed.D, from San Diego State University’s Interwork Institute; and Chuck Saia.

We’re grateful for the meaningful conversations and energized by the collective commitment to supporting individuals and families impacted by brain injury. We look forward to continued collaboration and progress.

We were really excited 🎉 to team up with our friends and partners for this past weekend’s Florida Abilities Expo in Fort Lauderdale. It’s an incredible event with numerous demonstrations, activities and booths, including an ABLE United table and an ABLE today table. With a steady stream of attendees, ABLE Director John Finch and ABLE United Ambassador Vilma Carmona spoke with a number of people about the value of opening an ABLE account.

Way to Go John and Team! 👏

As our National Outreach Director and Disability Advocate explains this huge news 🗞️ in the disability community. The ABLE Age Adjustment Act goes into effect on Jan. 1, 2026, and it means another approximately 8 million Americans will be eligible to open an ABLE account and start their own journeys to financial independence!

We're grateful to have partners like Enable Savings Plan who continue to spread the news about the value of ABLE Accounts. Recently the ENABLE team went to the SOAR (Seeking Opportunities for an Advocacy Revolution) in Omaha. Led by Stacy Pfiefer, ENABLE Director and Assistant State Treasurer to Nebraska State Treasurer Tom Briese, the team spoke to many people living with disabilities, telling them about the advantages an ABLE Account provides.

Go ENABLE!

ABLE today wants to make sure you have all the info you need to open an ABLE Account. That’s why our National Director of Outreach hosts bimonthly webinars to get you answers. Here’s a question we’ve often received about ABLE Account Supporters.

Opening an ABLE account allows the owner—the person living with disability—to designate someone as an ABLE account supporter, which could be a family member, a representative payee, guardian, conservator or others. Having an ABLE account supporter is NOT a requirement, but it is available if needed.

What a great National Down Syndrome Congress conference this past weekend in Dallas! We were proud to partner with the Texas ABLE Program, which is part of the Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts. The unstoppable Anna Mallett, who is an outreach specialist at the Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts, was out in force, meeting attendees at the sponsored table and giving a presentation on ABLE accounts, where she bumped into Jody Ellis, Director of the ABLE National Resource Center and
Rachel Mast, ABLE National Resource Center Ambassador.

And Anna still wasn't done. She also struck a pose with Cristina Kazmierczak, who is the Texas Miss Amazing and just became a Texas ABLE Spokesperson!
