Learn About Ticket
The Ticket to Work and Self Sufficiency program was created to give Social Security disability beneficiaries an avenue to achieve economic self-support through work.
Organizations selected to participate in the Ticket program are required to provide employment support services that afford Ticket Holders the opportunity and support to prepare for, obtain and retain career ladder jobs that will enable them to leave and remain off cash benefits.

Section 503 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973
