ABLE accounts are savings accounts for individuals with disabilities which will not affect their public benefits. These accounts can be used for daily transactions and/or long-term savings. Income earned in the accounts is not taxed if spent on qualified disability-related expenses. Contributions can be made to an account by anyone and may qualify for a state tax deduction. 


The Mississippi Department of Rehabilitation Services has more information: https://www.mdrs.ms.gov/Pages/able-act.aspx
