Accolades
  • “GovBenefits.gov empowers people to make decisions for themselves and their families by providing a single website where they have access to information on nearly 1,000 government benefit and assistance programs.”
    Office of Management and Budget “Report to Congress on the Benefits of the President’s E-Government Initiatives,” 2008.
  • “Senior citizens generally have a lifetime of work experience, so they don’t know about entitlement programs they may be eligible for. A valuable website like GovBenefits.gov will allow agencies, particularly ones without a case manager on staff, to be able to tell their clients what programs they may be eligible for, in a relatively simple way.”
    Marian Peele, Food Bank Director, GovBenefits.gov 6th Anniversary Webcast, 2008.
  • “Agencies that transfer their online benefits eligibility tool entirely to GovBenefits gain a low-cost solution. They don't have to integrate anything through their back end, they don't have to reinvent a rules engine, they don't have to reinvent any infrastructure.”
    “A Host of Benefits,” Government Computer News, October 17, 2008.
  • “Americans pay millions of dollars in taxes each year, and most of that money goes to fund programs designed to help those who need it. GovBenefits.gov gives you an easy way to see if there are funds, training or other benefits available to you.”
