lifetime support

care, every
step of the way

Lifetime Support, Inc. was created to help families oversee the care and finances of their loved ones. Lifetime Support, Inc. allows families to plan ahead and arrange to have someone take on these important responsibilities in the event that family members become unable to do so. For individuals with no family involvement, Lifetime Support, Inc. evaluates their case to see if there is a need to pursue guardianship; as long as it’s in the best interest of the individual.

support services

Lifetime Support, Inc. currently serves as the legal guardian (in some cases with a family member as co-guardian) of adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities. In addition, Lifetime Support serves as trustee and co-trustee of several Special Needs Trusts created to benefit individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities. LTS. Inc. no longer provides representative payee services. The Arc of Union County is now an organizational payee and services are provided under that name. I’m still the one responsible for the payee department.

Although Lifetime Support, Inc. serves many individuals who live in housing and/or attend day programs run by The Arc of Union County, it also serves individuals who are not receiving any support from The Arc of Union County on a case-by-case basis.
