The LIFE Center Offers Networking Event Regarding SSI and SSDI Programs

On October 21st, The LIFE Center For Independent Living, opened their doors to local services partners and the disabled community to discuss and learn more about Supplemental Security Income (SSI) and Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) as part of this month's National Disability Employment Awareness Month (NDEAM) celebration.  Information was provided regarding many Social Security Administration (SSA) Work Incentives programs such as, the Ticket to Work program and the the Work Incentives Planning and Assistance (WIPA) program. Through the sharing of information, between service organizations, we can create a combined effort to assist more individuals. Below are a few images from our meeting.
