Ticket to Work Program

As a Social Security Administration Employment Network MassHire Franklin Hampshire Career Center offers The Ticket to Work (TTW) program to our customers who receive SSI or SSDI. TTW is a free and voluntary program that can help Social Security beneficiaries go to work, get a good job that may lead to a career, and become financially independent, all while keeping their Medicare or Medicaid. Individuals who receive Social Security benefits because of a disability and are age 18 through 64 may qualify for the program.
