Summary
What This Bill Does
This bill amends Title XI of the Social Security Act to require the Commissioner of Social Security to disseminate information about the Ticket to Work program to certain eligible individuals. The Ticket to Work program allows Social Security disability beneficiaries to receive employment services while maintaining their benefits, helping them transition to work.
Who Benefits and How
Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) and Supplemental Security Income (SSI) beneficiaries benefit from increased awareness of employment support services. Individuals with disabilities who want to work gain better access to information about a program designed to help them enter or re-enter the workforce without immediately losing benefits. Employment service providers under the Ticket to Work program benefit from increased referrals.
Who Bears the Burden and How
The Social Security Administration bears administrative costs for developing and distributing informational materials. These are minor costs relative to the SSA's existing operations. No additional burdens are placed on beneficiaries, as the program remains voluntary.
Key Provisions
- Mandates SSA disseminate Ticket to Work program information to eligible individuals
- Targets outreach to disability beneficiaries who may benefit from employment services
- Improves program awareness without changing eligibility or benefit rules
