Trying to get back to work

[alfonso]

I was told that there was a program that helped injured workers transition back into the workforce and helped them find jobs that were good for them, but I forgot what the name was, and I cant seem to find it. Does anyone know anything about this?!

Are You thinking of the "Ticket to Work Program" for People on SSDI? We would need a Lot More Info., such as Your State, Injury, where You're at in Your w/c Case, and so on to Answer You to the Best of Our Knowledge! If You could Please give More Info., I'm Sure Someone from Your State May be able to Help!! Have a Great Day, and Welcome to the Forum!!

I live in California. My injury was a broken elbow, I just got put on permanent & stationary status. My worker's comp. checks have been stopped and I need to try to do something to earn a living.

Most states have a Vocational Rehabilitation Program, a state program that will help injured workers return to work.

Also check you local Center for Independent Living, they are a wealth of information for the disabled and many have employment programs.

If Your Claim is now Closed, I don't know that w/c is going to Help, but You can always Call and Ask. There May be Programs Available at the School You are thinking of Attending, Most Schools have a Financial Aide Department to Help! Good Luck!!
