The Small, Local and Emerging Business (SLEB) program is designed to enhance contracting and procurement opportunities for small, local and emerging businesses within Alameda County by providing up to 10% bid preferences on eligible contracts.
For adults, the medical conditions that qualify for SSDI or SSI include: 1  Musculoskeletal problems, such as back conditions and other dysfunctions of the joints and bones. 2  Senses and speech issues, such as vision and hearing loss. 3  Respiratory illnesses, such as asthma and cystic fibrosis.
(This durational requirement means that while severe back conditions can qualify for Social Security disability or SSI, wrist or ankle sprains seldom qualify as disabling conditions.) To be considered a disabled person for Social Security purposes, a disability applicant must be unable to perform substantial work. Generally, this means working and earning above a certain amount; in 2017, this means making over $1,170 per month.
