The National Center for Policy Analysis (NCPA) was a non-profit American think tank[3] whose goals were to develop and promote private alternatives to government regulation and control. Topics it addressed include reforms in health care, taxes, Social Security, welfare, education, and environmental regulation.
The NCPA was founded in February 1983[4] and ceased operation in mid-2017, announcing it had faced three years of serious financial trouble.[5] An NCPA website is being maintained by a former board member at NCPAThinkTank.org,[6] where publications have been archived.[7] A history of the organization and summary of its accomplishments may be found at the Goodman Institute.[8]
