Mission and programs · 2024

• DIGNITY INDEX THE DIGNITY INDEX IS AN EIGHT-POINT SCALE FOR MEASURING HOW WE TALK TO EACH OTHER WHEN WE DISAGREE. BY SPOTLIGHTING DIGNITY, WE CAN EASE DIVISIONS, PREVENT VIOLENCE, AND SOLVE PROBLEMS. WE PILOTED THE INDEX IN THE 2022 UTAH CONGRESSIONAL ELECTIONS, WHERE WE APPLIED IT TO CANDIDATES' SPEECHES AND DEBATES, AND RELEASED SCORES WEEKLY LEADING UP TO THE ELECTION. WE RECEIVED POSITIVE MEDIA COVERAGE AND HAD CORPORATE AND EDUCATIONAL DIGNITY AMBASSADOR PARTNERSHIPS. WE WANT DIGNITY TO BE SEEN AS A WINNING STRATEGY IN POLITICS AND POLICYMAKING, AND HOW WE TREAT EACH OTHER WILL BE SEEN AS A MARK OF PATRIOTISM, A MEASURE OF OUR WELL-BEING, AND A KEY INDICATOR OF OUR FUTURE.

As filed on the 2024 return. The filer continues this part on Schedule O, which is not shown here.

Listed in Part VII

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. A Schedule J breakdown is as filed: base pay, bonus, other, deferred compensation and nontaxable benefits from this organization, with any from related organizations beside each, and the filer's own total. It is shown with the Part VII listing of the same name on the same return. The form gives no key between the two, so that pairing is ours, and is marked matched by us.

Schedule J

Part I's answers as filed. A line not listed was left unanswered; on lines 1a and 3 that means the box was not checked.
