The Social Security Advisory Board (SSAB) is a bipartisan, independent federal government agency established in 1994. Its purpose is to advise the President, Congress, and the Commissioner of Social Security on matters of policy and administration of the Old-Age, Survivors, and Disability Insurance and the Supplemental Security Income programs. With seven members appointed by the President, Senate, and House of Representatives, the SSAB provides expert guidance and analysis to inform decision-making in the realm of social security.
The SSAB conducts research, holds board meetings, and commissions papers to address various aspects of social security, such as retirement trajectories, financing the future, and protecting individuals from scams and fraud. Through its work, the SSAB aims to ensure the sustainability and effectiveness of social security programs, benefiting both current and future beneficiaries. As an independent agency, the SSAB plays a crucial role in shaping social security policies and promoting the well-being of individuals relying on these programs.
