Why We Focus on Special Needs Planning
For families caring for individuals with disabilities, the future holds unique challenges that require in-depth knowledge and planning. Many parents and caregivers worry about what will happen when they can no longer provide care or when their child ages out of the public school system.
​
We founded Perseverance Planning because we witnessed firsthand the peace of mind that comes from having a comprehensive plan in place—and the potential consequences when families lack proper planning. Our goal is to ensure that every special needs family in Virginia has access to the expertise they need to secure their loved one's future.
Our Approach: Personalized, Comprehensive, and Ongoing
We understand that every family's situation is unique. That's why we take the time to get to know you, your loved one, and your specific goals and concerns. Our planning process includes:
1. An in-depth discovery meeting to understand your loved one's needs, abilities, and dreams.
2. A comprehensive review of your current financial situation and legal documents.
3. Development of a customized plan that integrates financial strategies, legal protections, and benefit considerations. ​
​
4. Implementation support to help you put every element of the plan in place.
5. Ongoing reviews and updates as your family's needs evolve and laws change.
