What is an Employment Network?

An Employment Network (EN) is part of the Social Security Administration’s Ticket to Work program. This program helps individuals receiving SSI or SSDI (between the ages of 18-64) understand how going back to work will impact their benefits and provide help finding and maintaining employment.
