Victoria is a city of roughly 60,000 people. Our culture promotes hard work. In fact, when things get tough, the old mantra here is to roll up the old sleeves and get to work. Unfortunately, for our most vulnerable citizens here in Victoria, TX, that is simply not a reality. Our most vulnerable citizens suffer from debilitating injuries that prevent them from gainful employment. Trying to work in the face of a serious disability only makes the problem worse. The stress that comes with such an injury is also hard to live with – one wonders things like: “will I become homeless,” “how will I be able to afford necessary medical care,” and “how will I make it in the meantime?” These are legitimate concerns. Fortunately, our federal government’s social security system provides relief, for those who qualify, to those most vulnerable citizens who suffer from disabilities that prevent them from working.
