Overview

Mission

Labor Union

What it reported doing in 2025

Represented federal civilian employees of the Department of the Army in matters related to workplace rights conditions and employment disputes. Provided representation in grievances negotiated working conditions with agency management and supported members in administrative and labor management proceedings

Operating model

Revenue model
Membership-supported. 100% of the money available for current operations came from membership dues.
Distribution model
Transfer-based 990-EZ. The 990-EZ reports grants or member benefits, but it does not separate enough spending to show the nonprofit’s full delivery mix.

The verdict

MIXED - The filed numbers largely add up. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and expenses are high relative to revenue.
