Supplemental Security Income (SSI)
Since 1974, the federal government and the states have provided cash assistance to low-income aged, blind, and otherwise disabled individuals under the Supplemental Security Income (SSI) program. The federal SSI program establishes uniform, nationwide eligibility rules, and it makes cash payments to elderly and disabled people with low income who are eligible.
