NCSSMA     
National Council of Social Security Management Associations
 

   

The NCSSMA periodically surveys management to identify concerns and gather information on a variety of issues such as staffing, workloads, and providing service to the public.  Management Survey reports summarize the results of these surveys.

We emphasize the importance of good government relations with Congress by maintaining a dedicated presence on Capitol Hill through our Government Relations Consultant.  We share our President's feelings on various issues posted to the Grassroots Page.  (User name and password needed for these web pages - refer to  our Home page)

In addition, we try to get our positions known through the dissemination of position papers and adoption of resolutions.  We forward letters to SSA's Central Office expressing our views and share the minutes of our Executive Committee meetings with our members and interested parties.
