Available formats:    Word   |    PDF


Work incentives planning services requires an in-depth understanding of the beneficiary’s current situation and how available work incentives can impact on a beneficiary’s employment efforts. CWICs will establish written benefits analysis plans for beneficiaries with disabilities outlining their employment options and develop long-term supports that may be needed to ensure a beneficiary’s success in regards to employment. CWICs will also, based upon a beneficiary’s needs, make referrals to Employment Networks (ENs) or Vocational Rehabilitation (VR) when appropriate. CWICs will also provide periodic, follow-up planning services to ensure that the information, analysis, and guidance is updated as new conditions (with regard to the applicable programs or to the beneficiary’s situation) arise.
