Navigating Social Security benefits while working can feel overwhelming—but it doesn’t have to be. In this session, Marilyn Morrison, Certified Work Incentive Coordinator and Director of the Maryland Work Incentives Network, will share a clear overview of programs and resources that support individuals with disabilities in balancing employment and financial security.
We’ll cover:
- SSI/SSDI Myths vs. Facts – clear up common misconceptions about how work affects benefits.
- Work Incentives & PASS Plans – tools that support employment goals.
- ABLE Accounts & Earnings Reporting – two essential things every provider or family member should know.
- Benefits Counseling & Resources – where to turn for guidance and support.
- The Employed Individuals with Disabilities (EID) Program – how it works and who can benefit.
Whether you’re a service provider, family member, or individual with a disability, this webinar will give you practical takeaways to better understand and use these programs with confidence.
