About us
The National Whistleblower Center (NWC), a non-profit, tax-exempt, non-partisan organization, is the leading whistleblower legal advocacy organization with a 35-year history of protecting the right of individuals to report wrongdoing without fear of retaliation. Since 1988, we have provided services and advocacy on behalf of whistleblowers. Currently some of our programs are: Grassroots Advocacy: Through the NWC Action Alert Network, we are improving protections and standing up for the brave individuals who report waste, fraud, and abuse. Sign up to receive periodic updates and calls to action. Follow the NWC on Facebook and Twitter and be the first to get news on the NWC's grassroots campaigns. Legal Advocacy: Attorneys affiliated with the NWC have written and filed numerous Amicus Curiae briefs in precedent-setting cases around the country. Click this link to review the Amicus Curiae briefs submitted on behalf of whistleblowers. Legal Assistance: The National Whistleblower Legal Defense and Education Fund’s (NWLDEF) Whistleblower Legal Assistance Program is very simple—we match whistleblowers with lawyers who are interested in representing whistleblowers. Expanding Whistleblower Rights: The National Whistleblower Center has played a key role in drafting and supporting major whistleblower legislation such as the Dodd-Frank Act, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, and the Whistleblower Protection Enhancement Act. The NWC is actively involved in opposing efforts to weaken existing laws and pushing for strengthening whistleblowers laws in the area of wildlife whistleblowers, international whistleblowers and pushing for an official National Whistleblower Day.

Let’s talk about the IRS Whistleblower Program. Since the program's inception, the IRS Whistleblower Program has recovered over $6.6 Billion USD. Due to program dysfunction, the annual recoveries of the program fell from $1.44 Billion in 2018 to just $172 Million in 2022. The agency’s payouts to whistleblowers dropped from $312 Million down to $37 Million in this same time period. The program needs to be revitalized to address long case and payment delays, enhance whistleblower anonymity and protections, and establish a more just standard of review in Tax Court for whistleblower cases. Advocating for this Bipartisan IRS Whistleblower Program Improvement Act is one of our 7 Major Campaigns for 2024. We need you in this fight with us.

NWC strongly recommends whistleblowers consult with an attorney before venturing outside disclosure channels, as legal protections against retaliation could be sacrificed and sanctions could be imposed as a result. However, working with the media to release non-classified content to the public IS protected under the 1st Amendment and often used to ensure urgent public concerns are addressed.
