Benefits Counseling



Benefits Counseling offered by Coleman Employment Services is a comprehensive process that systematically evaluates multi-system benefits. There is an initial interview with the client and team to review existing benefits and determine potential employment income for the client. A Benefits Counselor will then assess SSI, SSDI, Medicaid, Public Housing, Veterans, cash assistance and food stamps as necessary. A written report summarizing existing benefits of working and maximizing work incentives is presented to the referring counselor. The Benefits Counseling service includes an additional follow-up as necessary.
