Overview

Mission

Educate key decisionmakers, stakeholders and the public on the modernization of the u.s. Strategic nuclear deterrent.

What it reported doing in 2025

Program services provide the membership with public forums and more intimate roundtables to discuss the benefits of a modern strategic nuclear deterrent. These deterrent modernization benefits include not only safety, security, and reliability, but also lower costs and flexibility to size the stockpile, the triad, and nuclear command, control and communication according to the national security threat.

Operating model

Revenue model
Membership-supported. 79% of the money available for current operations came from membership dues.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

SUPPORTED - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. A relatively small share of voting board members are independent and some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered.
