IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy2Grp/Desc0First Step Benefits was implemented to help men and women with severe disabilities access Social Security Disability Income (SSI) and Medicaid. Prior to First Step Benefits, only 19% of homeless people who applied for disability were approved. In contrast, over 80% of First Step's clients are approved and in an average of 120 days (compared to 3 - 5 years in Georgia). First Step Benefits has secured Social Security Disability income for over 1,300 participants and they have a combined annual income of over $10,400,000.
