The Social Security Administration has taken a proactive step to bridge the gap between critical financial assistance and the people who may be eligible for it by launching a campaign to raise awareness about Supplemental Security Income benefits. In Arkansas, more than 94-thousand people receive S-S-I benefits, but officials believe more qualify and need the help. Abigail Zapote, a senior advisor with the Social Security Administration, says adults and children who are blind or living with a severe disability can receive monthly payments. People 65 and older who receive Social Security retirement benefits may also be eligible. She adds S-S-I applications in Arkansas and across the country dropped sharply following the pandemic.
Zapote says more than 7-point-5 million people in the U-S are receiving S-S-I benefits. The “Basic Needs” campaign includes radio and TV ads, flyers and mailers, to reach people in mostly rural and under-served areas.
