Overview

Mission

Committing to providing complete public safety communications expertise, professional development, technical assistance, advocacy and outreach to benefit our members and the public.

What it reported doing in 2024

Fostered technological advancement, availability and implementation of a universal emergency telephone number system (9-1-1) by promoting research, planning, training and education.

Operating model

Revenue model
Earned-program. 75% of the money available for current operations came from fees and other program revenue.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

SUPPORTED - The filed numbers largely add up and a large share of total spending goes to programs. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and liabilities are high compared with assets.
