What is the Social Security “Disabled Adult Child” Disability Program?
The Social Security Disability Disabled Adult Child (DAC) program provides monthly benefits to adults with disabilities based on a parent's work record instead of their own. This program helps people whose disabilities began before they turned 22 years old and who are unable to work because of a serious medical condition. Even though the name says "child," the person applying is usually an adult. The word "child" simply means they qualify through a parent's Social Security earnings.
