The Chicago Abilities Expo comes to town June 12-14, 2026, at the Renaissance Schaumburg Convention Center in Schaumburg, IL.

Join Illinois State Treasurer Michael Frerichs on Friday, June 12 at 11 am as he cuts the ribbon to open the show. After the ribbon cutting, stop by booth #508 to learn how to open an IL ABLE Account to be able to save and invest to be able to pay for many of the products featured at the Abilities Expo. Grab some IL ABLE swag while you are there.

Be sure to bring your ABLE questions to the IL ABLE Workshop where a diverse group of IL ABLE Account Owners will talk about how they are achieving “Financial Freedom & Quality of Life with ABLE” with their IL ABLE Accounts.  

  • June 13 at 12:30 pm – Presentation and panel discussion (in English)
  • June 14 at 2:00 pm – Presented in Spanish

Did you know that funds in an IL ABLE Account can be used to pay for many of the products and services displayed at the Abilities Expo?

Money saved in an IL ABLE account can help pay for a wide range of expenses that help to improve the quality of life, health, and independence of an Account Owner; services and products such as therapy, assistive technology and equipment, job training, education, transportation, and home modification, personal support services, and so much more – the types of products and services that will be on display at the Abilities Expo!

The Abilities Expo is the leading consumer show for the disability community, showcasing interactive experiences (like adaptive rock climbing), speakers and workshops, and hundreds of life-enhancing products and services. The Abilities Expo is free to attend.

See you there!
