Low-income older adults who receive Supplemental Security Income (SSI) are expected to live on a maximum of $967 per month (in 2025). Program rules significantly constrain SSI recipients' ability to supplement their income, maintain savings, or share resources with others. This research uses new, nationally representative secondary qualitative interview data from the American Voices Project to ask how low-income adults manage getting older and getting by on SSI.
