A young person’s guide to Social Security

Download PDF

Social Security is the nation’s most successful anti-poverty program and it remains a fundamental pillar of the American economy—one that is critical to the long-term economic security of today’s young people. The National Academy of Social Insurance (NASI) and EPI just released an updated and revised version of A Young Person’s Guide to Social Security, a comprehensive 60-page guide written by young authors for students and young workers. The new edition, published jointly by NASI and the Economic Policy Institute, reflects the latest official estimates in the 2015 Social Security Trustees’ report.
