Find a Benefits Specialist
Community Work Incentive Coordinators (better known as benefits specialists) provide individualized counseling for people who receive Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) payments and/or Supplemental Security Income (SSI). Their purpose is to explain how work may allow you to have more money, share your talents with your community, feel good about yourself, and become more independent.
A benefits specialist can provide:
- Specific information on the work incentives available to Social Security recipients to support them through their transition into successful work.
- Examples of how you can achieve greater income and build a financial future when you have a combination of earnings and benefits, or earnings alone.
- A review of your benefits and services to help you maximize your independence.
- Follow-up services after you return to work.
