North Carolina Statutes

Chapter 36D North Carolina Community Trust for Persons with Severe Chronic Disabilities

§ 36D-9 Beneficiary's interest in trust not asset for income eligibility determination

Notwithstanding any provisions of Chapter 108A of the General Statutes, the beneficiary's interest in any community trust is not considered to be an asset for the purpose of determining income eligibility for any publicly operated program, nor shall that interest be reached in satisfaction of a claim for support and maintenance of the beneficiary. No agency shall reduce the benefits of services available to any individual because that person is the beneficiary of a community trust. (1991 (Reg. Sess., 1992), c. 768, s. 1; 2005‑192, s. 3.)
