Ticket to Work

Social Security's Ticket to Work Program supports career development for people with disabilities, enabling them to reenter the workforce.

Keep Your Benefits While You Explore Employment, Receive Vocational Support & Gain Work Experience

Ticket to Work is designed to help people with disabilities progress toward financial independence, allowing them to maintain SSDI and SSI benefits while exploring employment opportunities, receiving vocational support and gaining work experience. The program is free, voluntary and open to beneficiaries ages 18-64.
