SSA HOPE Listing of Participants - Social Security is committed, through outreach and assistance, to identifying and removing the unique barriers to the disability application process sometimes encountered by homeless individuals. The target population for these funded projects is homeless individuals who are members of under-served groups, which may include people with severe and persistent mental illness, HIV infection, limited English proficiency, multiple and co-occurring disorders or cognitive impairments, as well as homeless veterans with disabilities. Through these awards, Social Security hopes to achieve faster claim decisions and higher allowance rates for those homeless individuals who are eligible for disability benefits. Staff of organizations awarded funding will receive training to improve their knowledge of Social Security’s disability programs and application process. The purpose of this assistance to disabled homeless individuals is to improve their quality of life, especially in achieving full community integration, attaining stable housing and promoting recovery and employment. See if there is one in your state.
