| IRS990/Description | 0 | In 2011, CQE worked to build support for quality public schools in states throughout the country. CQE worked with advocates on the front lines to identify, inform and activate communities to advance state and local education priorities. CQE also conducted extensive public opinion research about education reforms proposed at the federal level, as well as those already in place at the state and local levels. CQE's 2011 agenda focused on bringing the voices of parents, students, educators and communities to the public debate on education. Staff also worked to expand the capacity of state and local advocates to impact education initiatives at a time when states faced dire budget circumstances. In Pennsylvania, CQE worked with state education advocates to launch a public education campaign to build a public mandate to fully fund education. Despite the worst economic recession since the Great Depression, lawmakers came together to protect funding for K-12 public education. CQE also worked with Maine education advocates to successfully defeat a tax initiative that would have imposed rigid limits on funding for public schools and numerous other vital services. In Oregon, CQE supported state and local advocates in their public education campaign to successfully push through new funding sources to protect education funding. |

| IRS990ScheduleO/GeneralExplanation/Explanation | 0 | CQE does not have committees; therefore, this question is not applicable. |
| IRS990ScheduleO/GeneralExplanation/Explanation | 1 | After the 990 tax return is prepared, CQE staff reviews the draft with its Attorney. After legal review, staff presents the final return to the Board of Directors. Finally, the board Treasurer provides one final review before the tax return is signed and submitted. These reviews are documented in the Board of Directors minutes. |
| IRS990ScheduleO/GeneralExplanation/Explanation | 2 | CQE expects the primary interest of staff members to be the people it serves. A conflict of interest occurs when the interests of a staff member or another outside party actually or potentially affect the nonprofit in a negative way. Conflict of interest standards for CQE are as follows: Gifts, Loans, Gratuities: No staff member may accept gifts, gratuities, free trips, personal property or other items from an outside person or organization as an inducement to provide services. Similarly, no Board member may accept any in-kind benefit, which would not be considered by CQE to be an allowable business expense. Employees must not, in their dealings on behalf of CQE, realize any profit or benefit for themselves or their family, or secure any profit apart from their remuneration from CQE. The CQE conflict of interest policy is monitored regularly by the Board of Directors and is currently under review. |
| IRS990ScheduleO/GeneralExplanation/Explanation | 3 | CQE does not make its governing documents, conflict of interest policy and financial statements available to the public. |
| IRS990ScheduleO/GeneralExplanation/Explanation | 4 | Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 15: The CQE Board of Directors meets 4-6 times a year in person or via conference call. The Board Members are not compensated for their time; however, their travel-related expenses are reimbursed. The CQE Board originally set the Executive Director's 2004 salary at an amount substantially less that his previous employer. He has not had a salary increase since CQE's founding. |
