    Purpose of the Study:

    • To analyze 25-year trends in Supplemental Security Income (SSI) applications and awards.

  • Stratification of data by age groups: 65+, 18-64 (disabled), and under 18 (disabled/blind).

    • Main Results:

    • Detailed 25-year patterns of SSI program growth and changes were identified.
    • Applicant and recipient trends varied significantly across the analyzed age demographics.
    • Newly eligible children based on disability/blindness represented a distinct program expansion.

    Conclusions:

    • The SSI program has undergone significant evolution since its inception.
    • Understanding demographic shifts in SSI utilization is crucial for policy and resource allocation.
    • The program's impact on vulnerable populations, particularly disabled children, warrants continued examination.
