What Others Say About Us
Collaborating with Pam was one of the best things to happen to me after enrolling in the Ticket to Work program. Pam helped me define my ideal role, highlight my existing skill set, and empowered me to present these assets with confidence. What makes working with Pam so effective, and so special, is the delicate balance she strikes between powerful motivator and trusted friend. Not only did she help me to identify areas of past career achievements, but she is currently providing me post-employment support and is extremely knowledgeable in all aspects of the Ticket to Work program. With Pam in my corner, I was able to secure my dream role within the industry I was most interested in. More importantly, I enjoyed the process and learned more than I thought possible. I am so grateful for my opportunity to work with Pam. I get excited at any chance to recommend her to someone who is looking for additional support in the Ticket to Work program. She truly is the best!
My name is Michael Cosme. I was in a car accident when I was 17, when I turned 18, I received SSI. I was in high school at the time ago my employment was very limited. About 9 years after my accident, I stated actively looking for a job, but I had no idea what I was doing. I heard people say I could make up to a thousand a month without my SSI being affected. I didn’t make anything close. I didn’t know I needed to report my income.
I was very good at my job, my employer kept giving me now hours, I was above what I thought was the limit. I went to social security and told them I had a job and to please stop paying me, I was making too much money! They told me it didn’t work like that, they told me to search for a case worker and they would explain everything. Before o found a worker, social security sent me a bill for immediate payment of something like 25 thousand. I couldn’t pay it; I had no idea what to do.
Then I got connected with Mrs. Redding. She explained everything and even though I still have to pay social security back, Mrs. Redding at up a payment plan and made everything easy.
I still have to report my income, which is very easy and very simple. I just send Mrs. Redding a copy of my pay stub, and I don’t have to even think about it. She knows all the rules very well, explains anything I don’t understand. Which was very good, because I went into the SSA office to sort out my problems, I had no idea what they said. I called Mrs. Redding and she explained everything.
Admittedly, I’ve never had another worker doing my SSA stuff, but I don’t need another. I like that I just have to send my stub to Mrs. Redding, and I don’t have to think twice about it.
You will not be sorry having Pamela Redding as your case worker.
When we met, I was living in Adult Foster care, working in a sheltered work program, and had a representative payee to handle my money. They found me a community job, helped me set-up a system and learn how to do my own banking and pay my own bills. I moved into my own place, and I have now been totally independent for over 5 years.
