Too bad they don't have these PUBLIC meetings at local offices.
RE: 1:41's comment. The SSAB doesn't work from SSA field offices, nor are they SSA employees, so your comment doesn't really make sense. (Not to mention that SSA offices rarely have actual meeting space.) That said, if you have opinions you want to share about the vexing challenges that SSA faces in trying to ensure that the most vulnerable beneficiaries/recipients have competent, capable payees to help manage the SSA/SSI payments, there are definitely avenues you can use to share your thoughts. The blog here is one place, assuming that you are interested in sharing broad ideas not related to a specific situation. I have no doubt that this blog is routinely monitored by some of the agency's highest officials....
Ok then, SSA's rep payee system as currently constructed and maintained is an absolute joke!
