Financial health
We do not score finances when yearly spending is very small or the return has too little detail. The ratios stop meaning much at that size.

Programs described in its return (3)
- THE ASSOCIATION SERVED AS REPRESENTATIVES IN LABOR NEGOTIATIONS WITH VARIOUS SCHOOL DISTRICTS AND PROVIDED A FORUM FOR ITS MEMBERS TO NETWORK WITH EACH OTHER. THE ASSOCIATION SERVES APPROXIMATELY 18,000 MEMBERS.
- IN FISCAL YEAR 2024-2025 UEA HAS WORKED DILIGENTLY TO CONVERT OUR MEMBERS TO AN ALTERNATIVE METHOD OF PAYING DUES CALLED AUTO-PAY. THE PURPOSE IS TO PHASE OUT THE PAYMENT OF DUES BY PAYROLL DEDUCTION AT THE SCHOOL DISTRICT LEVEL. IT IS OUR GOAL TO HAVE 100% OF OUR MEMBERS ON "AUTO PAY" BY THE END OF FISCAL YEAR 2025-2026. WHEN WE HAVE MET OUR GOAL, IT WILL MEAN THAT ALL DUES ARE PAID BY EFT OR RECURRING CREDIT CARD TRANSACTIONS.
- THE UTAH EDUCATION ASSOCIATION IS PROUD TO CELEBRATE A MAJOR VICTORY FOR PUBLIC WORKERS AND THE INCREDIBLE STRENGTH OF COLLECTIVE ACTION. ON JUNE 21, 2025 THE LIEUTENANT GOVERNOR OFFICIALLY CERTIFIED THE REFERENDUM TO REPEAL HB 267. WITH 251,262 VERIFIED SIGNATURES, FAR SURPASSING THE 140,748 REQUIRED, AND THE 8 PERCENT THRESHOLD REACHED IN 23 OF UTAH'S 29 SENATE DISTRICTS, UEA MEMBERS AND OUR ALLIES HAVE SHOWN WHAT'S POSSIBLE WHEN PUBLIC WORKERS UNITE WITH PURPOSE AND DETERMINATION.
