Yes.
Welfare generally refers to Aid to Families with Dependent Children (afdc) which was replaced by Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (tanf) with the 96 welfare reform.
SS disability and medicaid are entirely separate with different eligibility requirements and funding sources. So is SNAP (Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program) or food stamps.
