The Ticket to Work and Self-Sufficiency Program is a program from the Social Security Administration to assist Beneficiaries who are interested in getting back to work.
 

 The Social Security Administration has two programs that provide  benefits,  the Social Security Disability Income (SSDI) program and the Supplemental Security Income (SSI) program.
 

Career Development Services assists in both programs as an approved Employment Network provider for  the Ticket to Work Program.
 

When assisting Beneficiaries, the EN provider and the Beneficiary work jointly to select the most useful options of services and resources that are available to the Beneficiary.  An essential element for success is to have the Beneficiary direct the job search and be involved in all aspects of the process. It is essential to  do everything possible to ensure a good match between the Beneficiary and the work environment.
 

A good planning process in finding a job involves the following key elements:
 

• Identify employment options that fit well with the Beneficiary's personal vision 
• Family, friends and community resources help generate job leads, employment contacts, and support 
• Develop a clear vision about the type of job to pursue 
• Information about the needs of the job market, and contacts for job leads and career exploration
