Learn About Ticket to Work
The Ticket to Work (Ticket) Program offers Social Security beneficiaries with disabilities the choices, opportunities and supports needed to find and keep employment, increase their earnings through work, and reduce their reliance on cash benefits to the greatest extent possible.
Ticket to Work for Workforce Agencies
The U.S. Department of Labor (DOL) actively encourages public workforce system entities to become Employment Networks (ENs). Workforce entities qualify automatically to become ENs and are encouraged to learn more about the benefits and many ways to participate in the Ticket Program.
