ADvancing States Executive Director Martha Roherty and ADvancing States Deputy Executive Director Camille Dobson have joined the National Academy of Social Insurance (NASI). NASI is a nonpartisan and interdisciplinary network made up of the nation's leading experts on social insurance. Its mission is to increase public understanding of how social insurance contributes to economic security. NASI conducts evidence-based research to support informed policy discussions, but does not take positions on legislative or regulatory proposals. For over 30 years, the Academy has convened social insurance experts, served as an educational clearinghouse, and led research activities around Social Security, Medicare, Workers’ Compensation, Unemployment Insurance, and related programs.

ADvancing States has previously partnered with NASI, including serving as a host site for NASI summer interns, and looks forward to continued collaboration between the two organizations.
