TICKET TO WORK

Social Security’s Ticket to Work program can help decrease reliance on Social Security Income (SSI) and Social Security Disability Income (SSDI). This program is specifically created to increase financial and independent well-being of program recipients. As an Employment Network (EN) Service Provider, employU can assist with the following support at no cost to the recipient:

• Benefits/Work Incentives Counseling

• Career Planning/Counseling Job Search and Placement

• Resume creation and Interviewing

• Ongoing Employment Support

• Assistance with Work Accommodations

Recipients of Supplemental Security Income (SSI) or Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) can be referred to employU to speak with a Certified Work Incentive Practitioner. Our program provides an easy to access entry point for recipients to acquire initial and ongoing benefits support they need to attain, maintain and advance in employment. At employU, we will make every effort to meet clients in person, however, remote interviews can be accommodated as necessary.
