Employment Network
Employment Partners strives to empower individuals towards self-sufficiency by providing the skills and support needed to succeed in the workplace.
As an approved Employment Network in the Social Security Administration’s Ticket to Work and Self-Sufficiency Program, Employment Partners offers pre-employment and post-employment services to “Ticket Users.”
To be eligible for assistance under the Ticket program, you must be between the ages of 18 and 64 years of age, currently receiving Supplemental Security Income (SSI) and/or Social Security Disability Income (SSDI), and be interested in attempting a return to work under the protections of the Ticket Program. These protections, or what we refer to as “safety nets,” allow individuals receiving Social Security disability benefits an opportunity to try to work, while protecting their benefits.
Employment Partners provides comprehensive employment services that include benefits counseling, resume building, interviewing skills, and job search and placement assistance. In addition we will provide support services once you have obtained employment and will be available for information and assistance with reasonable accommodations in the workplace. Our employment services are provided at no cost to you.
