Over the past several decades the number of Supplemental Security Income (SSI)<\/a><\/strong> recipients has steadily swelled, especially among claims being made for children. While most recipients consider these benefits a lifeline, the increasing costs have many citizens questioning what the future holds for the program.<\/p>\n

The Supplemental Security Income Lawyers<\/a><\/strong> with Newlin Disability point to data that indicates in 1974, when the SSI program was first launched, the total number of disabled children receiving benefits was approximately 71,000. By 2011 though, roughly 1.3 million disabled children were receiving benefits, costing taxpayers around $9.3 Billion annually.<\/p>\n
