Ticket to Work for America’s Veterans
Social Security's Ticket to Work (Ticket) Program recognizes that military veterans have a lot to offer employers. For veterans receiving Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) or Supplemental Security Income (SSI), the Ticket Program offers help to identify transferable skills, prepare for and find civilian job opportunities.
