1010          SOCIAL SECURITY DISABILITY SCREENING AND ADVOCACY

Supplemental Security Income (SSI) and Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) are disability benefit programs administered by the Social Security Administration (SSA). Screening for a client's potential referral for these programs is a required part of a Work Services provider's due diligence. If medical documentation or assessments support the likelihood that a client may qualify, SSISupplemental Security Income / SSDISocial Security Disability Insurance may be used as the employment goal on the FSSPFamily Self Sufficiency Plan, see MS 1002-2.

SSISupplemental Security Income and SSDISocial Security Disability Insurance approval counts in the performance "Cases that closed with earnings" and "Case that don't return," see MS 1003-1 C (2) and 1003-1 C (3).
