About the Social Impact Partnership to Pay for Results Act (SIPPRA) program

The Social Impact Partnership to Pay for Results Act (SIPPRA) program was signed into law in 2018. The SIPPRA program is a pay-for-performance program that supports state and local governments in implementing social programs that have been shown to be effective and bring savings to the federal, State, or local government. Under SIPPRA, the Treasury Department only pays for programs that achieve predetermined outcomes. The SIPPRA program is designed to help state and local governments to scale up effective social programs, to attract private investment in social services, and to improve the effectiveness of social spending.
