♿ October is National Disability Employment Awareness Month! 🇺🇸
At America Works, we believe that talent has no limits and that people with disabilities deserve the opportunity to build meaningful careers, achieve greater financial independence, and reach their employment goals.
Throughout National Disability Employment Awareness Month (NDEAM), we celebrate the contributions that workers with disabilities make to workplaces and communities across the country — and we encourage employers to continue building workplaces where everyone has the opportunity to succeed.
If you are between the ages of 18–64 and receive SSI or SSDI, the Social Security Administration’s Ticket to Work Program may be able to help you take the next step toward employment.
Through the America Works Ticket to Work Employment Network, eligible participants can receive FREE employment and benefits counseling services, including:
✅ Job search and placement assistance
✅ Resume and interview preparation
✅ Benefits counseling
✅ Career planning and goal setting
✅ Wage reporting assistance
✅ Ongoing support after you start working
Your disability does not define your potential. Your next opportunity could be closer than you think.
