Advocacy groups (e.g., National Organization of Social Security Claimants' Representatives)

Advocacy groups, such as the National Organization of Social Security Claimants' Representatives (NOSSCR), are organizations that support and protect the interests of specific populations. NOSSCR focuses on helping individuals navigate the Social Security disability claims process. They provide resources, education, and legal assistance to ensure that claimants receive the benefits they deserve. Such organizations advocate for policy changes, raise awareness about issues affecting their constituents, and work to improve the system for better access and fairness. Overall, their goal is to empower individuals and promote their rights within the social security framework.
