What is the Academy?

Since the National Academy of Social Insurance was founded in 1986, it has been a national leader on social insurance policy. Throughout the Academy’s nearly 40-year history, the Academy and our members have championed the safeguarding, strengthening, and updating of America’s social insurance system. 

Comprised of nearly 1,300 members—the nation’s top experts in social insurance and related programs—the Academy brings experts together across silos and diverse perspectives to address pressing social insurance challenges and to study how social insurance can continue to meet the changing needs of American workers, families, employers, and our economy as a whole; fosters and uplifts research and analysis to educate policymakers and policy influencers like the media, provide thought leadership, and to shape the debate; nurtures a strong social insurance community; and supports a strong, diverse pipeline of social insurance leaders. 

What is social insurance?

Social insurance programs such as Social Security, Medicare, Worker’s Compensation, and Unemployment Insurance—as well as related public programs such as Supplemental Security Income, Medicaid, the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, Temporary Assistance for Needy Families, and the Affordable Care Act—offer critical protection amidst life’s uncertainties, benefiting individuals, families, and the economy as a whole. Without social insurance, the number of Americans living below the federal poverty line would be nearly twice as high as it is today, and millions more would lack health coverage.
