Work Incentives Planning and Assistance (WIPA) Program Returns to DRN!

Sent by the Disability Rights Network of Pennsylvania –

Friends –

Disability Rights Network of Pennsylvania (DRN) is pleased to announce the return of the Work Incentives Planning and Assistance (WIPA) program as of August 2013.  We are returning with three (3) Community Work Incentive Coordinators (CWICs) to serve Social Security Disability beneficiaries in Philadelphia, Montgomery, Delaware and Bucks counties.

As in the past, the WIPA program will provide guidance to beneficiaries who are working or are attempting to work. We are making it a priority to conduct outreach activities with transition-aged youth.  The WIPA CWICs will provide beneficiaries with valuable information on the work incentives, benefits, and services available to help them achieve their employment goals.  We plan to help beneficiaries through ongoing employment counseling services and outreach activities.  Our services are free of charge and are confidential.

If you or someone you support are in need of WIPA services, please do not hesitate to contact us.  The toll free number is 800-692-7443, ext. 309.

On behalf of the WIPA Team, we thank you for your continued support and look forward to serving you!

Sincerely,

Phyllis Hilley
