You are invited to a special training from Community Legal Services of Philadelphia on helping disabled people get their maximum benefits despite harsh rules about financial savings.

The virtual training will be held on Thursday October 4, 2023 from 1:00 PM-2:30 PM Eastern.

The Supplemental Security Income (SSI) program provides vital income to individuals with disabilities and older adults. However, the program’s strict limits and complex rules create barriers to participation and prevent recipients from attaining financial stability. A bipartisan group of senators recently introduced the SSI Savings Penalty Elimination Act, which would be life-changing for many SSI recipients.

Join Coommunity Legal Services for a training on SSI’s outdated and strict asset limits, a little-known workaround to these severe rules, and how this proposed legislation would provide much-needed improvements to the SSI program.

Even if you are in an LSC restricted program, this training will provide valuable insight on how you can help your clients obtain their maximum benefit.

Learn more about the need to increase the SSI asset limits and take action to support the SSI Savings Penalty Elimination Act.
