According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 1 out of every 36 children are diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder. In this episode of Edelman Financial Engines’ Everyday Wealth™, Jean is joined by wealth planner Isabel Barrow and a director of estate planning Erin Smith, to detail the financial and legal challenges that families of children with special needs face and discuss options to consider to help navigate them. Later in the episode, Jean talks to Gordon Hartman, the founder of Morgan’s Wonderland, the world’s first fully accessible and inclusive theme park, which was inspired by his daughter Morgan, who lives with special needs.
Ms. Chatzky receives cash compensation for acting as hosts of the Everyday Wealth radio show and podcast and for related activities and therefore has an incentive to endorse Edelman Financial Engines and its planners. That compensation is a fixed sum paid on an annual basis; and reimbursement for certain expenses. The amount paid each year does not vary, is not based on show content or any results-dependent factors (e.g., popularity of the show).
