is too disabled to work, as well as the families where the breadwinner has died.
A million and a third disabled workers under 65 are now drawing social security disability benefits to offset income loss, and payments are going to an additional million of their dependents. The average monthly payment for a disabled worker’s family with children is $235, she declared.
When a worker applies for these benefits he is also referred to his state rehabilitation agency so that he can be considered for possible rehabilitation services. These services can help many disabled people to go back to work, if not at their old jobs, at new jobs for which they have been specially trained. Social security often pays money to the rehabilitation agencies to help meet the cost of rehabilitating disabled workers.
