First weeks If it is an emergency, call 911. If you are in crisis, call or text 988. Ask Social Security about SSDI or SSI as soon as you become disabled. Phone 1-800-772-1213, TTY 1-800-325-0778, weekdays 8 a.m. to 7 p.m. If a letter already said no, open the appeal roadmap and note the date on the letter. In California, look at State Disability Insurance if you cannot work, and IHSS if you need help at home. Ask about health coverage. In California, Medi-Cal and Covered California are the state doors. If you need a wheelchair or other device, start with the program that would pay, not a store ad. Ask the local transit agency about paratransit. Rules are local. Pick one peer group. A Center for Independent Living finder is enough for a first call.
