Ticket to Work Program
Ticket to Work is a voluntary
program that offers Social Security Administration (SSA)
disability beneficiaries greater choice in obtaining the support
and services they need to help them go to work and achieve their
employment goals. Participants must be age 18 or older and have
not reached age 65. Going to work while receiving Social
Security Disability benefits can be complicated. Ask questions –
it is important to know the facts. To find out if you are
eligible, contact the Ticket to Work Operations Support Manager
contracted by SSA.
