Ticket To Work
Cape Fear Vocational Services is an approved Employment Navigator with the Social Security Administration’s Ticket to Work program. This free and voluntary program supports career development for individuals with disabilities who want to work and progress toward financial independence. Social Security disability beneficiaries between the ages of 18-64 qualify. Choosing to work can change your life. The Ticket to Work program and Work Incentives allow you to keep your benefits while you explore employment, receive vocational support, and gain work experience. If you are age 18 through 64 and receive Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) and/or Supplemental Security Income (SSI) you already qualify!
