Queer Guide To Disability Benefits Zine

A Resource For Navigating SSI, SSDI, and Doctors For Folks Who Are Sick, Disabled, Chronically Ill.

We hope that this zine can provide relatable information, ample resources and tangible support to our greater disabled-queer community (and their support people) as they traverse the sometimes rocky, confusing, and exhausting path towards securing stable income through government assistance programs. From personal stories, to logistical play-by-plays of the SSI/SSDI application process, to tips on how to handle doctors, we aim to speak to the mind + the heart + all the parts in between, to guide and encourage and enable folks to keep on with the good fight. Why? Cause we want more of YOU (US) to thrive! We need our disabled queer family to bring their gifts to the world (wherever within or without capitalism that falls), and sometimes, that means getting financial help from the government to meet our basic (and rightful!) needs.

If you want a free digital zine, please message me!! We want everyone to have access to our zine.

Since making this zine, I since learned about another free resource that might be helpful to folks. I have nothing to do with it, but it's one of the best disability resource guides I've ever come across, so you might want to check out - howtogeton.wordpress.com

SHIPPING INFO: I work on chronic illness time and give myself up to three weeks to make and ship orders. I appreciate your patience while I meet my access needs! Shipping is free in the US!

PAY IT FORWARD: The Buy One, Give One option allows me to give a zine to someone who couldn’t otherwise afford one!
