For those of you who may not be familiar with the Ticket to Work (TTW) program, you may be wondering what we are talking about. In 1999, the government passed a new program that would allow SSI and SSDI beneficiaries to attempt returning to the workforce, if and when they were able and ready to do so. All the while, protecting their benefits, and even rewarding companies who chose to diversify their workforce by hiring these individuals with certain tax incentives. This program is absolutely free and completely voluntary for SSI and SSDI beneficiaries who are eligible ticket holders. This means that the services we provide here at ERS are absolutely free to you, but you must sign up with our network to participate.
There are many reason why participating in this program is a great opportunity. For starters, it helps you build self-esteem and feel good about yourself. As you work your way through the program, you can test careers to see what the right fit is for you, learn new skills, make connections in the community, and work towards building financial independence.
We hope Ticket Talk Café will help better serve you with the ticket program, and what ERS does. Please feel free to write us and ask questions. In the next couple of blogs we will address some of your frequently asked questions, and other topics suggested by ticket holders.
