Welcome to Disability Determination Services (DDS)
The Disability Determination Services Unit of DVR is a state administered federal program that serves Delawareans who are unable to work because of a disability. The DDS develops, adjudicates, and processes disability claims of residents for Social Security disability benefits. The unit staff determines if:
- A person meets the statutory definition of a disability as defined in the Social Security Act.
- The disabled individual meets medical eligibility to receive Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) or Supplemental Security Income (SSI).
Deputy Director Marc Young is responsible for the operations of the DDS unit. For more information about Social Security Disability Benefits and Services click on the following link http://www.ssa.gov
