Overview

Mission

The organization is a labor organization that advocates for the interests of public education employees and promotes quality public education on behalf of the membership.

What it reported doing in 2024

The organization negotiated contracts on behalf of the membership, represented the membership at state and federal assemblies and provided direct services to the members, such as training.

Operating model

Revenue model
Membership-supported. 98% 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 and revenue comfortably covers expenses. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and reported officer compensation is a large share of total spending, which may reflect staffing concentration.
