Social

Announces
Ticket
to
Work
States
for
2001 Dec.
1,
2000
--
The
Social
Security
Administration
will
begin
implementing
the
"Ticket
to
Work"
program
that
was
approved
at
the
end
of
1999.
It
is
aimed
at
putting
disabled
Americans,
particularly
those
on
social
security,
back
to
work.
The
SSA
says
it
is
"great
news
for
Social
Security
beneficiaries
who
need
help
returning
to
work
or
going
to
work
for
the
first
time.
We
look
forward
to
bringing
the
Ticket
to
Work
program
to
beneficiaries
in
13
states
(see
link
below
story)
beginning
early
in
2001.
Once
you
get
your
ticket,
you
can
offer
it
to
the
Employment
Network
of
your
choosing.
We
are
committed
to
increasing
opportunities
for
employment
and
self-sufficiency.
You'll
want
to
find
out
if
your
state
is
part
of
this
first
phase."
