3/16/2020 Topic: Parent Controlling Client's Debit Card Amanda Buncher	Hi Devan, Thank you for sharing this important question. Do you think the family/individual would be open to the potential of a STABLE account (or equivalent account in your state)? This could be a separate space where the individual saves money (without it affecting his benefits) where he could still have access to a debit card. Just a thought... Would love to hear other ideas people may have! Amanda
