- Ensuring public policies are inclusive and equitable for all nonprofits
- Building relationships and enhance communication with UNA members, elected officials, and the public
Our Policy Work: Preserving Public Trust in our Sector
UNA advocates on public policy issues that affect Utah's nonprofit sector. We work with the the Utah Legislature, our state's federally elected officials, as well as state and federal agencies to develop laws and policies that
- Save nonprofits time and money
- Help nonprofits operate more effectively, and
- Preserve the public’s trust in Utah’s nonprofit sector.
We mobilize nonprofits of all missions and budgets to join our advocacy efforts.

Protecting the Combined Federal Campaign (CFC) is protecting our communities
The Combined Federal Campaign is under threat — and the consequences will not stay contained. When nonprofit infrastructure is weakened, communities feel it first and the strain spreads quickly across the sector. This is not abstract. It is meals not served, services delayed, crises that could have been prevented.
Contact your federally elected officials today and demand they protect the Combined Federal Campaign and ensure full disbursement of pledged funds. Encourage your board, partners, and stakeholders to do the same. If your organization receives CFC funds, download your historical data before the March 4 deadline. If we think this will not touch our work, we are wrong. It will and is exactly why we must act together.
