PrefaceSince 1974, the Supplemental Security Income (SSI) program has guaranteed a minimum level of income for needy aged, blind, or disabled individuals. Each year, we issue a report that presents data on the SSI program and the people who receive benefits from it. The report covers such topics as federal benefit rates and total annual payments, federally administered payments, state-administered supplementation, work incentives, applications, awards, denials, and suspension of benefits. This edition includes several new features to provide more of a framework for the data. A background section describes the history and provisions of SSI, and a glossary defines terms related to the program. Two new tables (Tables 14 and 15) are the first to show unduplicated counts of persons receiving benefits from both the Social Security and SSI disability programs. To provide a clearer picture of who SSI recipients are, we have also added a new section (Tables 32 to 38) that draws on information from the Survey of Income and Program Participation. Those tables present data on SSI households, including the recipients' relationships to other household members, and on recipients' other sources of income, SSI as a percentage of personal income, and the role SSI plays in reducing the poverty gap. Alfreda M. Brooks compiled the data and prepared the report for publication. Celine Houget edited the report, and Laurie Brown prepared the Web versions. This report is available on our Web site at www.ssa.gov/policy. Four other publications on the SSI program are also available. They are State Assistance Programs for SSI Recipients, Children Receiving SSI, SSI Disabled Recipients Who Work, and SSI Recipients by State and County.

Acting Associate Commissioner for Research, Evaluation, and Statistics June 2002 NotesUnless otherwise
In July 2001, SSA made retroactive lump-sum payments to correct an error in the cost-of-living adjustment for 2000 and 2001. The data in this report reflect the federal benefit rate actually used for SSI payments ($512 for 2000, $530 for January through June 2001). Numbers in the text and tables of this report may not add to totals because of rounding. Table of ContentsThe following files are available for this document in the given formats:
