The Social Security Administration offers a variety of disability-related work incentives and support services to help people go to work. If you would like to work but are concerned it could affect your SSI or SSDI benefits, consider attending a free Work Incentives Information Session.
Presented by a certified work incentive counselor, these sessions are helpful for individuals receiving SSI or SSDI or anyone looking to learn about work incentives. Live topical sessions are offered monthly using Zoom from noon to 1 p.m. Each session provides attendees the opportunity to ask questions. The Sherlock Center also offers previously recorded webinars for those that want information but are unable to attend a live session. Scroll below for a list of available on-demand webinars.
