On June 18, 2024, the Senate Finance Committee held a hearing on “Work and Social Security Disability Benefits: Addressing Challenges and Creating Opportunities.” Social Security also published a notice in the Federal Register soliciting comment on the “Development of Participation in a Vocational Rehabilitation or Similar Program.” NOSSCR believes that Social Security’s return-to-work programs could be far more beneficial and successful than they have historically been, and we continue to advocate for improvements in these programs. We submitted comments in response to both the Hearing and the Federal Register notice, and those comments can be read or downloaded below.
