Our Social Security Statement reaches 125 million working Americans every year

We are pleased to report that one of our most important documents — the Social Security Statement — won Vice President Gore's Plain Language Award. As Gore noted,

”Millions of Americans depend on Social Security, and by making critical information simpler and more easy to understand, we are better serving the public.”

We’re proud that we played an instrumental role in developing such a highly visible government document. It has been widely accepted as a clear interpretation of complex information. To read more about the project, see our article Plain language pays off for the Social Security Administration in Clarity.

”Wonderful redesign! Easy to read and easy to understand — Easy to find the info — Kudos to whoever designed this new form!”

”I received my statement in the mail and just wanted to let someone know that I thought it was very well done. It was clear, comprehensive, and informative … a sign of good government in action. You should be congratulated.”

”This is the first time that I ever got anything from the government that I read all the way through.”
