For a list of frequently asked questions, we invite you to visit Arlington Heritage Group, Mainstay Life Services’ Trust Administrator.
In 2012, Mainstay Life Services established a Special Needs Pooled Trust. Since that time, many of the persons we support or their families have taken advantage of the Trust. Because the Trust protects funds for the future while maintaining benefits and facilitating long-term planning, we believe it is a wonderful option for improving quality of life.
Once a Trust account is opened, the funds may be used for things such as: classes, clothes, medical needs not covered by SSI, tickets, pet supplies, therapy, vacation, and so much more.
