Protect Your Family is a not-for-profit 501 (c)(3) organization providing social services for all people, including the elderly, with all types of disabilities. Our trust is staffed by a team of attorneys and trust specialists, who will use their years of experience to help set up and maintain the pooled income trust account in order to maximize your loved one's Medicaid eligibility. A Medicaid Pooled Income Trust is a supplemental needs trust that allows individuals with excess income to receive or maintain Medicaid benefits, while preserving their monthly income so that it may be used for expenses of their own personal "care, comfort and well-being." When you deposit your excess monthly income into the PYF Pooled Income Trust, you can become or remain eligible for Medicaid benefits. Funds deposited into the trust can then be disbursed for your clothing, food, rent, utilities and other basic living expenses. Our personal and caring staff will be happy to assist you in determining other expenses that may be covered. The Protect Your Family Trust was established to assist in providing for a better quality of life for its disabled clients by allowing them to receive their Medicaid benefits without comprising their assets or affecting their eligibility for other government benefits such as SSI, Food Stamps and Section 8 Housing.
