Event Date & Time : July 18, 2023 (04:00 pm - 05:30 pm)


This live webinar is geared toward young people with disabilities, who want to join the workforce after high school, and their families.

Have you ever asked yourself...

  • Can I work if I have a disability?(spoiler: yes)
  • How much can I work, earn, and save before I become ineligible for public benefits like SSI or Medicaid?
  • How do I report my earnings to the Social Security Administration—and to the Department of Human Services?
  • What is a PA ABLE account?
  • How can a Benefits Counselor help me plan for my future—and how do I find one?

If you have asked youself these questions, then this webinar is perfect for you! During her presentation, Joy Smith (Program Manager/Community Work Incentive Coordinator, AHEDD) will share important information that she has gained throughout her career counseling individuals with disabilities who want to work and need to maintain eligibility for public benefits.
