National Employment Network

A National Employment Network (NEN) is a coalition of organizations approved by the Social Security Administration (SSA) that helps individuals with disabilities find and maintain employment. These networks connect job seekers with resources like job searches, training, and workplace accommodations. They also coordinate with SSA to report employment progress, which can impact disability benefits. Essentially, NENs serve as a bridge between people with disabilities and the broader employment system, promoting inclusive work opportunities while supporting ongoing benefit management.
