The Arc of Massachusetts launched a new initiative called “After I’m Gone,” which is designed for aging caregivers concerned about future care for their loved one with a disability.
This program brings together practical tools, meaningful conversation, and a growing community all focused on one essential question: what will happen after I’m gone?
This guide is for you if…
- You or your adult child are concerned about your adult child’s future.
- Your adult child needs help making decisions.
- You would like to be inspired.
- You want peace of mind.
- You wonder what will happen when you are gone.
- You would like to improve your adult child’s life right now.
These resources also include a Future Planning Guide, which is a fillable PDF document, to support families and caregivers to guide them in planning conversations and to share information with partners and successors.
The guide contains seven key sections, including: information about the family/individual, work and home, supporting independence in adult life, health and medical information, legal and financial information, future support details, and sharing and maintaining your future plan.
