Gompers is very active in the most recent Ticket to Work and self sufficiency program. Anyone now receiving Social Security benefits between the ages of 18-64 qualifies for this great program.

The Ticket to Work and Self-Sufficiency Program is the centerpiece of the Ticket to Work and Work Incentives Improvement Act of 1999 (TWWIIA), and a key component of President Bush's New Freedom Initiative. The goal of the Ticket Program is to give disability beneficiaries the opportunity to achieve steady, long-term employment by providing them greater choices and opportunities to go to work if they choose to do so. The legislation also removes barriers that previously influenced people's choices between healthcare coverage and work.

Gompers is committed to the success of the Ticket to Work program in our community. Please contact our Manager of Vocational Services for more details at 602-336-0061.
