Disability Drew creates free tools and plain-English guides for people applying for Social Security disability. These guidelines explain how we create and maintain that content.
Who writes our content
Our tools and guides are created by the Disability Drew team. We write for people, not lawyers: short sentences, plain language, and clear next steps.
How we source information
- We rely on primary sources: the Social Security Administration, federal law and regulations, and official government data.
- Every dollar amount and deadline we state comes from an official source, and we link to it.
- We don't publish invented statistics, testimonials, or stories.
Legal review
Disability Drew is not a law firm, and our content is educational, not legal advice. We are working to have our content reviewed by licensed disability attorneys. When a page has been reviewed, it will show the reviewer's name and the date of the review.
Keeping things up to date
Social Security updates its benefit amounts and limits every year, usually in October. We update our pages when it does, and every page shows the date it was last updated.
Independence
Disability Drew is paid when people choose to request a case review (see How We Make Money). Our partners do not write or approve our tools and guides.
Corrections
If you see something that's wrong or out of date, please email hello@disabilitydrew.com. We'll review it and correct it if needed.
