TWO DATES-Learn the myths about working and disability benefits!

Benefits Workshop Tues June 29 1:30 to 3:30 via Zoom Register Today! image

Virtual Benefits Workshop Wednesday July 21 2021 10am to 12pm image

Has someone ever told you that because you have a disability and receive benefits, you cannot work? 

Have you ever been told that if you do work, you will automatically lose your benefits? These are just two of the many myths we hear about how employment may affect a person's benefits and we want to set the record straight! 

Register for our free virtual workshop on 

Tuesday, June 29, from 1:30-3:30 PM 

OR 

Wednesday, July 21 from 10 AM to 12 PM 

where you can expect to: 

  • Learn the myths about working while receiving SSI/SSDI, 
  • Hear all about local organizations' employment supports, and 
  • "Meet" benefits counselors who can give you free one-on-one help 

Funding for these events is ending in August, so we are not sure when we will schedule another workshop. If you've been wanting to come and haven't yet been able, make sure you register for one of these dates!

Registration closes on Monday, June 28

*This workshop will be most helpful to people who are already receiving SSI/SSDI.*
