Social Security turns 90 this year, with nearly four generations of Americans rightfully counting on social security as a part of their economic plan. Social Security is not just for older adults. It also supports children and families in the event of disability and death. However, the program currently faces a long-term financing gap which, if left unaddressed, will result in across-the-board benefit cuts of approximately 15 percent. There are workable solutions. A new survey from the National Academy of Social Insurance, supported by RRF Foundation for Aging, tested a range of vetted options to understand what components people most value, would like to see increased and could support being decreased.
Join us as we discuss:
- Outcomes of the National Academy of Social Insurance survey and,
- Next steps for philanthropy to ensure sure Social Security continues with its 90-year record of not missing a payment.
