Northwest Access Fund is a 501(c)3 Nonprofit and a Community Development Financial Institution. We offer people with disabilities customized loans, financial coaching, and other resources to promote access to assistive technology, independence, financial resilience, and life opportunities.
Northwest Access Fund provides help to apply for disability benefits by providing information about the process, answering questions, and providing support and resources along the way. We cannot guarantee that your application will be approved, and denials can happen even when the disability is obvious and well documented. 60-70% of initial applications are denied each year. If your application is denied, we recommend you work with an attorney. We are not attorneys and cannot provide legal advice, and cannot help with appeals.
