SSA Offers Help For Tornado Victims

From the Hutchinson News:
The Social Security Administration is prepared to assist Greensburg tornado victims through its office in Dodge City.

People who were severely injured can file a claim for disability benefits or for supplemental security income benefits. Surviving spouses and minor children of those killed in the tornado can also inquire about benefit programs. ...

Those who normally receive a paper Social Security check in the mail should to contact Social Security to provide a new address or to set up direct deposit, to prevent missing their next check. This can be done by calling the Dodge City office or the national toll-free number at 1-800-772-1213.
