Other organizations at this address

1 other organization in the IRS Business Master File lists the same street address. matched by us

We match the street line and ZIP code as the IRS gives them, ignoring case and outer spaces and nothing else, so "AVE" and "AVENUE" count as different streets and this list can miss some. A shared address can mean related organizations or a shared office, but it can also be a registered agent, a mail drop or a service provider holding mail for unrelated clients. It is not, by itself, evidence that two organizations are connected.

Mission and programs · 2023

Primary exempt purpose

National Survivors Union's mission is to end the racist war on drugs, the war on sex workers, the war on underground economies, and the war on poverty. We accomplish this through organizing and mobilizing, empowerment and skill-building, and holding increasingly professionalized harm reduction and public health spaces accountable to people who use drugs and trade sex. We hold the values of being led by impacted people through non-hierarchical organizing and collective leadership, a shared messaging of pride and love, meaningful engagement, and intersectional experiences. Our goals are to give people who use and sell drugs and people who trade sex the resources they need to not only survive but thrive through racist drug and anti-trafficking wars, nurturing fellow drug user and sex worker brilliance and achievement.

  • We continued our methadone reform policy work by releasing several new episodes of Naturally Noncompliant, our methadone reform podcast, and participating in the National Coalition to Liberate Methadone, a coalition of people with lived experience of methadone treatment, clinicians, and researchers we co-founded. We continued and expanded our research partnerships. We saw ongoing projects conducted in our weekly and biweekly calls as well, such as an election guide zine for people in our populations as a voting bloc as well as a sign-on letter against End Demand legislation which increases violence against sex workers proliferating in states, which has garnered 50 plus organizational signatories so far. Our national union participated in many of our affiliate groups' events and campaigns, such as NC Survivors Union's Bail Out Block Part. Finally, many of our members represented our work at national and international conferences and in events sponsored by federal addiction agencies.

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. Earlier years are each on their own filing page.

The four totals the IRS asks for on Part I of the Form 990, as filed. A dash means the figure was not present on the return — not that it was zero.

Nonprofiteer parses Forms 990, 990-EZ and 990-PF, in a window of recent tax years. These returns are recorded from the IRS e-file index, so their figures were extracted by that index rather than read from the return here — treat them as a different source from the filings above, not as more of the same record. A dash means the index carries no figure; Form 990-T listings carry none at all.

Grants made

No itemized grants to organizations. Schedule I is filed only by organizations that granted more than $5,000 to a recipient, so most filers have none.

Grants received

  • 2023 TO SUPPORT PRE-REFORM CONFERENCE STRATEGY MEETING, AND THE ATTENDANCE OFAPPROX 40 DRUG USER REPRESENTATIVES.

Other IRS files

Auto-Revocation List

Not listed. The IRS publishes this list for organizations whose exemption was automatically revoked for failing to file for three consecutive years.

Publication 78

Listed as of 11 November 2026, under deductibility PC.

These are two separate IRS files on two separate schedules, shown as published and not reconciled with each other. Neither is a statement about whether a contribution is deductible today: 19,245 organizations appear in Publication 78 while the IRS's own revocation file lists them as currently revoked, more than half of those revoked before 2019. Absence from Publication 78 is evidence of nothing, and presence is not evidence either. Verify current status with the IRS before relying on it.
