A Message From The President

Greetings from The National Foundation for Special Needs Integrity! We are committed to serving the needs of parties to mass tort settlements who receive governmental assistance benefits, like Medicaid and SSI.

The attorneys and settlement firm that have teamed up to secure your settlement have referred you to us because you are a recipient of at least one "means-tested benefit," such as Medicaid, Supplemental Security Income (SSI), Food Stamps, HUD/Section 8 Housing Assistance, or other governmental assistance programs. As you know, these governmental agencies limit how much money you can make or how much money you can have at any given time.
