Delivering on our promise to the public

As a public benefit corporation, Nava has a fiduciary duty to our mission. We’re responsible to ourselves and the public for ensuring that critical government services are simple, effective, and accessible to all.

Meeting our mission is an opportunity to restore trust between people and public institutions. We focus on populations that are the least protected because the stakes are higher.

Aligning to our mission

We select projects that:

Support populations under threat from institutional, economic, societal, or environmental pressures

Improve digital services for government programs and agencies

Build strong foundations so agencies stay responsive to continuous change

How Nava selects work

To advance our mission and help restore trust between people and public institutions, Nava has clear criteria for the work we take on.

Prototyping policy and systems change

Nava Labs is a new, philanthropically-funded division within Nava focused on prototyping policy and systems changes within government programs and advocating for their adoption.
