SOAR Plus! National Training

What is SOAR?

SSI/SSDI Outreach, Access, and Recovery (SOAR) is a model of SSI/SSDI application assistance that addresses the barriers faced by individuals experiencing or at risk of homelessness. Explore our website to learn more.

Parkwyn Training & Consulting (PTC) is offering this virtual opportunity for direct service providers nationwide to become “SOAR-trained.”

About SOAR Plus! Training

SOAR Plus! is an instructor-led, interactive, 2-day training that takes attendees step‑by‑step through the process of completing and submitting SOAR-assisted SSI/SSDI applications. Hands‑on activities, group discussions, and dedicated time for Q&As reinforce key concepts.

Follow-up connection and support bridge the gap between training and implementation, empowering providers to complete SOAR-assisted applications and navigate challenges with confidence!
