At Visible National Trust, special needs trusts are our core business. Visible’s cloud-native trust services platform is dedicated to the planning and administration of special needs trusts for families nationwide. We offer modern pooled special needs trusts, both First and Third-party, and special needs trust enterprise solutions for financial professionals and institutions that integrate seamlessly with existing and evolving trust platforms.

Visible’s pooled trusts serve families navigating the complex intersection of wealth management, resource planning, and lifelong care for loved ones with special needs. Visible Foundation, the Trustee of Visible’s pooled trusts, is a Delaware 501(c)(3) charitable nonprofit established in 2021. Within the broad category of charitable nonprofits, Visible Foundation is further defined as a 509(a)(2), which means it generates income by providing services related to its mission. Visible Foundation is responsible for managing Visible National Trust and is governed by a Board of Directors. The enterprise business model for Visible’s pooled trusts separates trust governance from trust administration, creating a stable corporate and oversight structure designed to endure regardless of operational or vendor changes.
