We are pleased to announce a cooperative agreement funding opportunity for the Work Incentives Planning and Assistance program. Cooperative agreements are legal financial assistance instruments between a Federal agency (in this case SSA) and a non-Federal entity when there is a need for substantial involvement between the two entities. Organizations awarded a cooperative agreement will receive funding to provide services to Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) beneficiaries and Supplemental Security Income (SSI) recipients who are working or attempting to go to work. The services include personalized counseling on how working will affect their Social Security and other benefits.
The Request for Application is open until April 19, 2021.

Thanks for all you do to support our beneficiaries.
Sincerely,
Kimberly Stephens
