National Organization of Social Security Claimants' Representatives Lawyer Referral Service 1-800-431-2804Social Security Basics
Established in 1979, the National Organization of Social Security Claimants' Representatives is an association of over 4,000 attorneys and other advocates who represent Social Security and Supplemental Security Income claimants.
NOSSCR members are committed to providing high quality representation for claimants, to maintaining a system of full and fair adjudication for every claimant, and to advocating for beneficial change in the disability determination and adjudication process.
It might be harder to get approved without a lawyer.
If you've been denied, keep applying. Everyone gets denied the first application. Your Social Security Disibility/SSI payments; will start accruing, from the date you first applied. The longer you wait the bigger the retroactive check will be, (for all the months you waited).
I don't know if most people, can get approved for Social Security Disability, without a lawyer nowadays. A lawyer may be necessary at some point of the application process, and I think that if your original application gets denied the first or second time, having legal representation from there on, would be the smart, easy way. You get what you pay for, especially with the law! Legally, social security lawyers are only allowed, to take a fee of, about 16% and only after one is Approved and receives their retroactive check that pays them since the first date they applied. I think the fee is reasonable.
(See the Social Security Websites (above), or call Social Security at 1-800-772-1213, For more information about applying or how to obtain a SSDI/SSI, attorney).

HUD's Mission; is to increase home ownership, support community development and increase access to affordable housing free from discrimination.

on the lists, your name can't move to the top of the them.
The Housing Choice Voucher Program is the federal government's major program for assisting very low-income families, the elderly, and the disabled to afford decent, safe, housing in the private market.

To help those who may be struggling, the Department of Defense teamed up with the nonprofit organization, Screening for Mental Health, to launch Military Pathways (formerly the Mental Health Self-Assessment Program).
The self-assessments are a series of questions that, when linked together, help create a picture of how an individual is feeling and whether they could benefit from talking to a health professional.

NAACP
The NAACP recognizes the importance of the economy and economic issues in advancing an equal opportunity society. We also acknowledge the fact that many Americans have historically been disenfranchised from the economic opportunity and the corresponding great wealth found in our country. Economic inequality has been exacerbated with the onset of the recent economic crisis. The NAACP has developed a number of programs designed to elevate civil and human rights issues as they pertain to economic opportunity. As the nation recovers from the worst fiscal crisis in more than three decades, the NAACP will advocate for policies and practice that advance an economy that can help bring the country together rather than further current and historical divides.

Don't let the old ways of thinking keep you back. You can be anything you want to be!
Hate Hurts The Hater!
Hate is ok. But to dwell on it is counter-productive.
The ones you hate don't care if you hate them or they wouldn't be such bad people that anyone would hate them. I think that they probably like it. It probably makes them feel more powerful.
Blind Hate distracts you from the business of everyday living.
You spend all the time you could be productive, obsessing on people who don't care. Instead of doing things to make your own life good!
Blind hate is unreasonable. Everyone is an individual. While you waste your mind with negativity you might turn an angel away from your door!
I started listening to Bob Marley in the 80's.I decided to take up his cause for Peace in the world.Thus my blog.
It's a new world out here. Especially with Pres. Obama. He'll help anyone who wants it. Get an education. It's the easy way to make big money. Look at those guys on Wall St.
My heart and prayers go out to you all!
People don't have to fight over the chump change that you get from dealing with the illegal stuff.This isolates you and keeps you poor.
It gives society a excuse to deny you what they owe everybody.
I'm old but I'm not old enough, not to be shocked at the War In The Ghetto!
This is really dumber than race hatred.
You're all being convinced it's cool to kill each other. Why, is a mystery to me!
I'm not butting in but I think that you are all really smart people, smarter than a lot of people!
Bob Marley is right, someone has to save the good people of the world.
You know what, your rights are my rights.
Civil rights help everybody!
I know it's a rat race out there.
But you know the rich didn't get rich because some fairy godmother tapped them with a wand. They know how to get, and keep.
We really have to break out of this mind controlled like 1984 type society we're experiencing (I read that book).
Break free and as Bob Marley says Stand up for your Rights.
Knowledge is Power!
Worth more than all the chump change in the world! If You Control a Person's Thoughts, You Control them!
Supply And Demand
There are only so many resources to go around and you know the stronger physically will always try to take it away from the weaker. It's the history of the world you gotta be quicker than everyone else
My mother always said the trick was to be smarter, than they are.
That way no one can talk bad about you.
it's a good racket to say that property values are low in a neighborhood because of crime and then buy up the good properties cheap.

♥♥♥ Castle Garden From August 1, 1855 through April 18, 1890, immigrants arriving in the state of New York came through Castle Garden. America's first official immigrant examining and processing center, Castle Garden welcomed approximately 8 million immigrants - most from Germany, Ireland, England, Scotland, Sweden, Italy, Russia and Denmark.
Castle Clinton or Fort Clinton was once a circular sandstone fort now located in Battery Park at the southern tip of Manhattan Island, New York City, in the United States. It subsequently became a beer garden, an exhibition hall, a theater, the first immigration station (predating Ellis Island), a very popular public aquarium, and finally a national monument. wikipedia 26 Wall Street, New York, NY 10005-1996

Unconquered CAPTAIN OF MY SOUL
Out of the night that covers me,
Dark as the pit from pole to pole,
I thank whatever gods may be
For my unconquerable soul.
In the fell clutch of circumstance
I have not winced nor cried aloud.
Under the bludgeonings of chance
My head is bloody, but unbowed.
And yet the menace of the years
Finds and shall find me unafraid.
It matters not how strait the gate,
How charged with punishments the scroll,
I am the master of my fate:
I am the captain of my soul.
