Working to Build a Sustainable, Democratic World

Solutions for Progress is a progressive public policy technology company providing services that directly assist low and middle income families to obtain public benefits easily and with dignity.

We work with federal, state and local government, faith- and community-based organizations and national civic organizations, who are seeking to disseminate resources to underserved populations, to meet anti-poverty and economic development agendas and to implement e-government solutions by mobilizing untapped income sources both to pay for the services and to meet the needs of the populations served.

Our primary product is the pioneering Web-based service, The Benefit Bank—a free service that assists low- and moderate-income households in maximizing their tax credits and public benefits by completing and submitting tax returns and applications for these benefits.

Solutions for Progress is the only organization:

  • To offer both tax preparation and public benefits application development through a single service: The Benefit Bank.

  • To provide free benefit application and tax filing services at point of use in a sustainable manner on a nationwide basis.

  • To incorporate state-wide outreach networks that ensure maximum client usage as a core element of its service.
