Many people who receive Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) and/or Supplemental Security Income (SSI) ask themselves: "Am I ready to work?"

People who say "YES" to this question and begin the journey to employment find that it changes their lives!

They find they can earn more money, gain greater financial independence, meet new people and learn new skills.

But many people who think they might want to try working are not sure where to start.

They may be uncertain whether working is "right" for them or concerned that they will lose their cash benefits

or Medicare or Medicaid and be worse off than when they started.
