Benefits Counseling

Benefits Counseling for people with disabilities is a service that:

  • Helps you understand how employment and other life decisions may impact your benefits.

  • Relieves fears you may have about a change in benefits or services if you start working.

  • Helps you make informed decisions on health insurance and other benefits (like Social Security, Medicaid, Medicare, and food, housing, and financial assistance).

  • Provides a clear plan on how you can work to increase your income and quality of life.

A benefits counselor helps individuals—often people with disabilities—understand how working, earning income, or accepting promotions impacts government benefits like Social Security (SSI/SSDI), Medicaid, Medicare, and housing assistance. They provide personalized advice, create work incentive plans to minimize risk, and assist with reporting wages.
