Funds from your trust are meant to add to and not replace disability benefits. As a result, you can't use your trust to fund living essentials that government benefits provide for, such as food, housing, clothing, or medical care. Doing so can reduce or eliminate your benefits. You can use it for things like education, therapy, or vacation expenses.
