This planning ensures that these individuals receive the necessary support throughout their lives without jeopardizing their eligibility for government benefits. A comprehensive plan for an individual with special needs will include consideration for things such as eligibility for public benefits, legal needs, Achieving a Better Life Experience (ABLE) accounts and investment planning and insurance needs.

After 23 years, Eric Oddleifson, VP of Assistive Technology and Community Support Services, is officially retiring!

Eric started his journey at ESMA as an AT Specialist, oversaw the creation of many programs, including College Navigator, and has led his departments through both exciting and difficult times over the last 10 years in his current role. Through it all, Eric has remained genuine and sincere in his dedication to serving people with disabilities and to our staff, both personally and professionally.

As Eric described in his farewell speech, working at ESMA felt like a ‘Friday night’ because of the joy and meaningful relationships he built with coworkers and clients over the years.

Thank you, Eric, for your hard work, humor, reliability, and decades of dedication. Wishing you a joyful, well‑earned retirement! 🧡
