Description

The Family Special-Needs Trust is designed to address the trust needs within the church by providing a structured financial resource for individuals with disabilities, ensuring they receive essential support without jeopardizing their public assistance benefits. The form outlines the irrevocable trust agreement between the Grantor and Trustee, detailing the management and distribution of trust assets for the Beneficiary's special needs. Key features include the ability to supplement public benefits, protect the trust corpus from creditors, and ensure that distributions to the Beneficiary do not affect their eligibility for governmental assistance programs. The Trustee holds discretionary powers to administer the trust effectively, managing investments and making distributions as needed. By using this form, attorneys, partners, owners, associates, paralegals, and legal assistants can facilitate the establishment of a trust that ensures ongoing care and enrichment for the Beneficiary, while remaining compliant with relevant laws. Filling and editing instructions emphasize clarity in designating trust property, appointing trustees, and defining the Beneficiary. Specifically, this trust can serve as a critical resource for churches supporting families with special needs, providing a reliable mechanism for securing financial wellbeing and enhancing quality of life for individuals who require additional support.
