I have been getting a lot of questions
about the Social Security Administration’s Ticket to Work program. The Social
Security Administration’s Ticket To Work program provides Social Security Disability
and Supplemental Security Income beneficiaries the opportunity to explore
career development programs, while remaining on benefits. The program is
available to both Social Security Disability and Supplemental Security Income recipients
between the ages of 18 to 64 years who want to work. It is a free and voluntary
program.
The goal of the Ticket-To-Work program is to
help people with disabilities achieve financial independence. The Ticket to
Work program provides a variety of service providers, employment networks and
State vocational rehabilitation agencies to help a beneficiary achieve concrete
work goals. A Ticket can allow an individual to obtain education, training or job
support. In return, the Social Security Administration expects that a Ticket-holder
achieve specific earnings levels, education or training goals within a timely
manner. Thus, the Ticket To Work program requires a working partnership between
the Social Security Administration and the Ticket-holder.

Work program, please call (866) 968-7842 or visit the Ticket To Work website
