The National Academy of Social Insurance is a nonprofit, nonpartisan organization made up of 1,200 of the nation's leading experts on Social Security, Medicare, Unemployment Insurance, and Workers' Compensation, as well as related issues, including caregiving, long-term care, Medicaid, workforce issues, and poverty. Our mission is to promote understanding and informed policymaking on social insurance and related programs through research, public education, training, and the open exchange of ideas. Why is social insurance important? Social insurance protects workers and their families against economic insecurity caused by: loss of income from work due to old-age, death, disability, or illness; the cost of health care and caregiving.
