American
Society for Public Administration (APSA)
Since 1939,
ASPA has been the nation's most respected society representing
all forums in the public service arena. ASPA members are advocates for
greater effectiveness in government - agents of goodwill and
professionalism - publishers of democratic journalism at its
very best - purveyors of progressive theory and practice and
providers of global citizenship. ASPA members believe that by embracing
new ideas - addressing key public service issues - and promoting
change at both the local and international levels, we can
enhance the quality of lives worldwide.
Agencies
Government Accountability Office
The U.S. Government Accountability Office (GAO) is known as "the
investigative arm of Congress" and "the congressional watchdog."
GAO supports the Congress in meeting its constitutional
responsibilities and helps improve the performance and ensure
the accountability of the federal government for the benefit of
the American people. GAO's work includes oversight of federal
programs; insight into ways to make government more efficient,
effective, ethical and equitable; and foresight of long-term
trends and challenges. GAO's reports, testimonies, legal
decisions and opinions make a difference for Congress and the
Nation.
