Social Security Administration

The Social Security Administration (SSA) provides financial protection for our nation’s people, supporting Americans throughout all of life’s journeys. We administer retirement, disability, survivor, and family benefits, and enroll individuals in Medicare. We also provide Social Security Numbers, unique identifiers needed to work, handle financial transactions, and determine eligibility for certain government services.

SSA is headed by a Commissioner and has a staff of almost 60,000 employees. SSA’s central office is located in Baltimore, Maryland. The field organization, which is decentralized to provide services at the local level, includes 10 regional offices, 6 processing centers, and approximately 1,230 field offices. In Colorado, SSA consists of the Denver Regional office, a national workload support unit, and 17 field offices. The Denver Region includes over 100 SSA offices and 862 employees throughout Colorado, Wyoming, Utah, Montana, North Dakota, South Dakota, and Fergus Falls, MN.
