RESOURCE
Employment and Benefits
This resource explains how work and benefits can fit together for people with disabilities. It helps people understand that they can work and earn money without losing all of their benefits right away. The slides explain common worries about losing Social Security or health coverage and share accurate information to help people make informed choices.
The resource also introduces work incentives, which are special rules that let people try working, earn more money, and still keep important supports like Medicaid for a period of time. These tools are meant to help people become more independent while staying safe and supported.
Overall, this resource encourages self-advocates to explore employment, understand their benefits, and feel more confident about working and building a future with more choices and independence.
