Truman Center
National Security. Nationwide.
The Truman Center brings national security nationwide, and we bring the diverse viewpoints of the American people to national security policymaking. We believe that the United States must use a wide range of tools that bridge foreign and domestic policy, and go beyond military might, to strengthen national security.

Meet People Where They Are: Local Perspectives on Nuclear Risk
As local communities continue to bear the burdens of the first nuclear age, nuclear decision-making remains concentrated in highly-gated policy circles in Washington, D.C. Nuclear weapons policymaking would benefit from broader stakeholder input, particularly from those with direct experience of how nuclear weapons development, maintenance, and production affects their communities.

Truman Center for National Policy
Truman unites and equips a diverse community of American leaders to produce timely, innovative, and principled solutions to complex national security challenges.
Current Initiatives
The Truman Center weaves the connective tissue between communities nationwide and Washington D.C. through our programs and policy advocacy.
“Those of us who co-founded the Truman Project always intended for our community to help principled national security experts gain access to the rooms where important decisions are made.
And the Truman Center is the glue that bonds it all together.”
Matt Spence, Co-Founder
“Cities generate more than two thirds of the world's GDP, face some of history’s greatest challenges and their mayors are on the front lines tackling the kitchen table issues facing families across the globe. Through organizations like the Truman Center Taskforce, our goal is to build a strong coalition of city and state leaders to broaden our influence in shaping national and global initiatives.”
Mayor Andre Dickens, Atlanta
“In politics, nothing’s impossible, nothing is inevitable. Everything is just possible through the democratic arts of education and organizing and mobilizing people for change.”
Congressman Jamie Raskin (D-MD)
