Social Security Disability Insurance

When a person sustains an injury in Connecticut and can no longer work due to a disability, they have several compensation options open to them. Two of those options are Supplemental Security Income (SSI) and Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI). In this section of our website, we outline when Social Security Disability Insurance is available to a person who can no longer work in Connecticut. If you find yourself injured and you need supplemental income, you can look into one or both of these programs. Learn more in this section of the website.
