Does anyone know if your child receives SSI and he/she is discharged from OT/PT services will they stop the SSI bc of just stopping the therapies?  Someone help me please!

I don't know? Hopefully someone else will. Can you ask your service facilitator?

If the child is still "disabled" or has a "disabililty" then they should continue to get SSI even if not in therapy.

There is a difference between SSI and SSD though.  SSI is also income based and SSD is solely based on "disability".  I am on SSD but don't qualify for SSI.  You should be able to find out by either calling SSA or calling your "worker" if you have one.  Hope this helps a little.
