Building enough savings for your child’s college can be tough when disability benefits are involved. The State Treasurer’s Office hopes the Illinois Able program can assist. 

That’s an issue Treasurer Mike Frerichs has heard a lot about as he enters his third term.

Treasurer Frerichs says families often have to choose between disability and saving for their child’s college experience. 

That’s where Treasurer Frerichs wanted a solution. He and his team came up with the Illinois Able program.

Treasurer Frerichs says that it’s easy to sign up for the Illinois Able program at illinoistreasurer.gov.
