SSA, SSDI, SSI Overview

Understanding the Benefits

The Social Security Administration (SSA) oversees several programs designed to provide financial support to different segments of the population, including:

• Supplemental Security Income (SSI): Provides benefits to low-income individuals who are 65 or older, blind, or disabled.
• Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI): Offers financial assistance to individuals who are unable to work due to a physical or mental disability.

These programs ensure that beneficiaries can meet their basic needs and manage living expenses despite economic challenges.
