Helping financial professionals with financial planning for the disabilities community
A Voya Cares financial planning tool kit for people with disabilities and caregivers to use with clients
One out of every four people in the U.S. live with a disability,1 while half of U.S. adults care for a child, parent, or other relative; that’s more than 100 million caregivers.2 Even so, people with disabilities and their caregivers are often overlooked.
Our mission is clearing your path to financial confidence and a more fulfilling life. And providing solutions and services to the disabilities community and their caregivers is a natural extension of our goal. In the process of doing so, we’re looking to help advisors make a difference in the lives of millions living with disabilities as well as their caregivers.
How does Voya Cares help financial professionals navigate the journey?
The toolkit below will help you, the financial professional, address the unique needs of the disabilities community and become even more valuable to your clients.
Each of these pieces are designed for you to use with your clients in the planning process, or for prospects as a handout to start the conversation.
