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.

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.
