The Partnership for a Secure America is a nonprofit founded by former U.S. Representative Lee Hamilton and the late U.S. Senator Warren Rudman to advance bipartisanship on today’s critical national security and foreign policy challenges. This grant will help enable a bipartisan group of 40 senior congressional staff working on national security and foreign policy issues to undergo intensive training in negotiation. The training will be delivered through a pilot program that the Partnership has developed with the Harvard Program on Negotiation. This pilot will help the parties involved ascertain whether the negotiation training can help congressional staff and the members they support work across the aisle more effectively.
