What Or Who Is A Disability Advocacy Program In The State Of Ohio?

Question

I got an appointment on August 22, 2008 at 12:15 P.M. at CAM for a comprehensive substance abuse assessment. I got referred by Crisis Care in my first appointment with them! I don't know what CAM does but I'm hoping that they will help me with my mental health problems! Then I got appointment for S.S.I. on Tuesday August 26, 2008 at 3:00 P.M. for a disability advocacy program! So what do I need to know so I can get S.S.I. or something? The doctors said I have borderline personality disorder, trichotillomania, bipolar disorder, seasonal affective disorder, etc.! I got like 20 hospital stays and I’m keeping track of them on paper and a food stamp card in Ohio and in Florida. I am getting medicaid / medicare card so what else do I need? I got all my medical bills, social security paperwork, Ohio bureau of workers compensation deny letter, hospital records, etc. I hit my head at DHL on 01-11-06 and the accident happen at work. I am going to get a lawyer or

something to help me on it! I applied for S.S.I. recently and they denied me because the S.S.I. people thought I had a $3,000.00 dollar workman computation case but I never got the money and the case was denied! So what else do I need to do or what do I need to do?

Answer 1

bring a doctor's note that states that you cannot work... then bring ALL your bills, any special diets that you have to be on, and any piece of paper that could possibly be helpful.  that's what you need to do with SSI... usually they're pretty easy and you bring everything you have and they tell you what else you need to get.
