LEGAL AID SOCIETY OF HAWAII
KIDS’ SOCIAL SECURITY DISABILITY PROJECT

Our Kids’ Social Security Disability Project focuses on outreach to special needs children and families with special needs children who may qualify for disability benefits.  Information regarding this resource for low-income and disabled children is sparse.  Thank you to Hawaii’s Legislature for supporting this effort and for providing a Grant In Aid that will enable information on financial benefits for children to spread.  We believe that spreading information and assisting with the Social Security Disability application process will benefit many of Hawaii’s children and families.  At Legal Aid, we provide free services for children and families by assisting with the application and appeal process in order to obtain benefits.
