What is Ticket to Work?
Ticket to Work was established by the Social Security Administration (SSA) in order to give people with disabilities an opportunity to go back to work. Goodwill Keystone Area is approved by SSA to help you. We can help you with job readiness, job searching and job placement!
What is the goal of Ticket to Work through Goodwill?
We don’t want to just help you find a job; we want to help you find your future! We believe that being active in the workforce provides more than a paycheck - it builds confidence. We want you to be all you can be!
Who Qualifies?
Goodwill’s Ticket to Work program serves all individuals with disabilities who desire to get back to work and want to become independent from Social Security benefits. To qualify, individuals must:

- Be between the ages of 18 and 64.
- Currently be receiving SSI or SSDI.
How Do I Use My Ticket?
You use your ticket by assigning it to an Employment Network like Goodwill Keystone Area, which will work one-on-one with you. Think of your ticket as your “free coupon” for our employment services.
