Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI)

SSDI provides benefits to disabled or blind persons who are “insured” by workers’ contributions to the Social Security trust fund. These contributions are based on your earnings (or those of your spouse or parents) as required by the Federal Insurance Contributions Act (FICA). Title II of the Social Security Act authorizes SSDI benefits. Your dependents may also be eligible for benefits from your earnings record.

School suspension of 5-11 year olds is shockingly high, and extremely detrimental even 10 years later. In my recently published paper with Megan Andrew in Youth & Society @SAGEJournals, we investigate the long-term scarring effects of suspension & expulsion of kids in grades K-5.
