The UCPEA has set aside funds to provide financial assistance for the relief of extra expenses related to childcare, eldercare, housing, health care, or to help offset a loss of income. To prioritize support for those in greatest need, funds will be distributed on a sliding scale based on annual salary.
This fund is currently available for FY 2025-2026; the Executive Board will decide whether to continue to offer it for future years. This is not an contractual benefit, therefore, only UCPEA members qualify for these funds.
Awards will range from $200 to $500 based on annual salary:
AWARD SCALE
Less than $45,000---------------$500

$65,000 - $84,999----------------$300
$85,000 - $99,999----------------$200
ELIGIBILITY:
- Be a dues-paying member.
- Annual salary of less than $100,000
