Welcome, Benefits.gov Partners!

As a Benefits.gov Partner, you play a critical role in the success of this essential, citizen-serving initiative. Benefits.gov partners participate in the program's governance, provide benefit program content for the websites, and provide the funding necessary to accomplish the annual performance plans in support of the Benefits.gov mission. This page exists to inform and support you in your role as a Benefits.gov Partner.

A Benefits.gov Partner is routinely asked to communicate about the initiative in various contexts to a variety of audiences, including agency leadership as well as subject matter experts, who provide benefit content for the program's websites. On this page, you will find a compilation of resources and downloadable documents to help enable effective and efficient communication with these audiences.
