In general, the same way that the courts determine support for anyone else - a percentage of net income. SSI recipients are not liable for child support.

What age is a child with an disabilities legally an adult?

An exception to the rule that parents' duty to support their children ends at the children's majority occurs when the child is disabled. In cases where the child is disabled, mentally or physically, and therefore unable to support himself/herself upon reaching the age of majority most states have adopted the rule that parents have a duty to support their adult disabled children. Most often, courts define "disability" in economic terms, i.e., the inability of the adult disabled child to adequately care for himself/herself by earning a living by reason of mental or physical infirmity. States differ as to whether support for an adult disabled child is determined by the state's child support guidelines or by the needs of the child as balanced by the parents' ability to provide support. In the case the child CAN support themselves then they'd be legally an adult at their states normal age of majority which is generally 18.

I would recommend contacting the local "Friend of the Court" and explain your situation to them. Be prepared to show documents that prove you are disabled and unable to work.
