Protection & Advocacy for Beneficiaries of Social Security (PABSS)

Everyone deserves the opportunity to earn a living and save for their future. The Protection and Advocacy for Beneficiaries of Social Security (PABSS) program ensures that individuals with disabilities can work without fear of losing their Social Security benefits.

Watch how the PABSS program helped Ian secure a steady income and a sense of independence.

If you receive Social Security Disability Benefits (SSDI) and Supplemental Security Income Benefits (SSI), PABSS can help you with:

• Information, advice, and referrals about obtaining vocational rehabilitation and employment.
• Advocacy or other services a disabled person may need to secure or regain employment.

If you’re eligible, let us help you get back to work. Download this flyer to learn more about HDRC’s PABSS services.

To determine your eligibility for PABSS or for more information or referrals to programs and services, call us at (808) 949-2922 or email an advocate at [email protected].
