SUMMARY:The ABCs of Disability Benefits: Your Guide to SSDI & SSI in 2024
DESCRIPTION:The ABCs of Disability Benefits: Your Guide to SSDI & SSI in 2024\nWhat happens when you’re not able to work for an extended period of time due to a medical condition? What about a child dealing with an issue that impairs her/his day-to-day function? Social Security may be able to help! The Social Security Administration oversees two disability-centric initiatives: Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) and Supplemental Security Income (SSI). Both programs aim to furnish financial aid to those contending with disabilities\, but each has its own criteria for work requirements and financial eligibility. While SSDI and SSI diverge in their operational nuances\, eligibility hinges on meeting stringent criteria pertaining to the nature and extent of the disability\, coupled with limitations on income and resources. During this session\, participants will learn more about SSDI and SSI as well as gain information and resources to help navigate the complex landscape of disability benefits.

SUMMARY:Navigating Finances with Valor: Financial Planning Insights for Military Clients

In this presentation\, Brandy Baxter\, AFC®\, FFC®\, United States Airforce Veteran\, will build upon Dick Power\, CFP®’s January 18th Presentation about the unique financial circumstances that service members\, veterans\, and their families face. \nAs military members transition from service to civilian life\, many carry the weight of experiences that significantly impact their well-being\, including their financial wellness.
