Making Employment Work without Worry: Social Security Administration's Work Incentives for disability beneficiaries

Harford County NAMI (National Alliance on Mental Illness) invites consumers, advocates and families to “Making Employment Work” a one-hour presentation about the Social Security Administration’s work incentives and safety nets for disability beneficiaries who want to become employed.

Kathi Santora, Project Manager for the Maryland Mental Health Employment Network, will explain how SSA designed safety nets to allow individuals a chance to work without fear of immediately losing cash and health benefits. Employment plays an important role in recovery as well as increased financial security.
