Social Security and Supplemental Security.

Just so you know, the Social Security and Supplemental Security Income disability programs are the largest of several different federal programs that provide assistance to people with disabilities throughout North Carolina and the nation. These two programs are different in many ways, however both are administered by the Social Security Administration.

For example, Social Security Disability Insurance pays benefits to you as well as certain members of your family if you are "insured." That means you have worked long enough and paid Social Security taxes. The difference is that Social Security Income pays benefits based on the financial needs of North Carolinians.
