General Admission

SSI/SSDI, Outreach, Access, and Recovery (SOAR) is a nationally recognized best practice model for helping people apply for Social Security disability benefits at the initial and reconsideration levels. SOAR approval rates in Colorado are 65% on average, which is significantly higher than the 35% approval rates for unassisted people at the initial level and drops to 10-15% for people experiencing homelessness. In addition, knowing the application process helps individuals obtain benefits faster, maximize their back pay and monthly benefits, and helps individuals understand and connect with other vital supports, such as ABLE accounts, benefits counselors, employment specialists, family and estate planning services, representative payees, and more!
