This month’s package includes:

• Celebrating 91 Years of Social Security
• Getting SSI and Working? What You Need To Know

We encourage you to share our articles through channels like electronic newsletters, email blasts, and print periodicals. Please use Social Security Administration as the author. If you publish or distribute an article, please let us know by emailing External.Relations@ssa.gov.

Thank you for your continued partnership in helping us provide timely and accurate information to the people you serve.

Sincerely,

Nick Perrine
