NCCI joins the American Dream Employment Network!

Written By North Country Center for Independence

North Country Center for Independence is now a member of the American Dream Employment Network (ADEN).  ADEN is a national administrative Employment Network providing services to individuals receiving Social Security Administration (SSA) disability benefits under the Ticket to Work program. For individuals receiving SSA disability benefits, the return to gainful employment can be complicated and challenging. The SSA recognizes the challenges that beneficiaries face in returning to work and, as a result, are able to offer supports through the Ticket to Work program to individuals who have the goal of achieving financial self-sufficiency. If you are receiving SSI or Social Security Disability Insurance benefits and are between the ages of 18-64 and looking for employment, Ticket to Work can be one of many work incentives to help get individuals with disabilities into the workforce. As a new Member of ADEN, we at North Country Center for Independence want to invite all of our current consumers who are receiving Social Security disability benefits to explore assigning your Ticket to Work.

Assigning your Ticket to ADEN is voluntary and there is no fee to assign your Ticket with ADEN. There is no risk involved, only benefits in assigning your Ticket with ADEN. You will continue to receive services from our agency, but as an ADEN Member, we can explore with you how the Ticket program can further expand the resources available to you to support you in your current job, assist you in finding a job and help you advance in your career. We can also assist you in understanding how best to leverage your current financial situation, and future planning for a more secure financial future. Our ADEN Ticket Specialist, Cassie Cayea, can work with you to discover if you have a Ticket available, and will also discuss with you further about the Ticket program to see if you are interested in receiving these supports - the choice is completely yours.  Learn more today by scheduling a time to meet with Cassie at ccayea@ncci-online.com
