The first webinar explored systems approaches to building benefits and work incentives planning capacities through models employed across various SVRAs. The second webinar provided an overview of an online just-in-time toolkit developed to support frontline VR practitioners in meeting the unique needs of youth receiving Supplemental Security Income (SSI). Finally, the series culminated in a presentation of lessons learned from various state PROMISE programs.
