Go Direct - Disaster Preparedness

Disaster Preparedness tool kit

When disaster strikes, senior citizens and people with disabilities can be especially vulnerable. Through Go Direct, partners can provide peace of mind by encouraging people to sign up for direct deposit of their Social Security or Supplemental Security Income (SSI) payment. It’s as simple as including information about Go Direct in your disaster preparedness programs and resources.
