Disability Benefits For Wounded Warriors

Social Security can provide a lifeline of support to people with HIV infection. That lifeline comes in the form of monthly Social Security disability benefits and Supplemental Security Income (SSI) payments, Medicare and Medicaid coverage and a variety of other services available to people who receive disability benefits from Social Security. If you are disabled because of HIV infection, this booklet from the Social Security Administration web site will help you understand the kinds of disability benefits you might be eligible for from the Social Security or SSI programs.
