Many children in the country have to deal with mental or emotional conditions that severely limit their abilities to function day to day. Like adults in similar cases, children may also be able to receive Supplemental Security Income (SSI) if their condition is determined to be severe enough to make them eligible for payments.
The Social Security Administration lists certain mental conditions that make children eligible to receive automatic disability benefits. For childhood disability cases not specified on the list, various areas of functionality in relation to an applicant’s condition are assessed by Social Security to determine eligibility.
Many parents apply for SSI benefits for their children if they are dealing with:
• Autism
• Down’s Syndrome
• Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD)

• Depression
• Anxiety
• And other serious mental, emotional, or cognitive conditions that present limitations for their lives
