“Director Aaron Erickson is the son of President and Board Chair Bruce Erickson. Executive Director Timothy Jore is the son-in-law of Bruce Erickson.”
“Form 990 was prepared by an independent CPA firm and reviewed by the organization's top management. The reviewed Form 990 was then reviewed by the organization's board of directors prior to filing.”
“The organization requires board members and officers to complete conflict of interest statements on an annual basis. This process, as well as monitoring of the policy at large, is overseen by the Chairman of the Board. If a potential conflict of interest is determined to exist, interested parties are required to recuse themselves from the deliberations and following board vote.”
“In determining compensation and benefits to provide to the President and Executive Director, comparability data is referenced including compensation paid by similar organizations to similar positions. The results are presented at the annual board meeting by the three member compensation committee. A final decision is then made by all independent members of the board. All deliberations and decisions are documented in the meeting minutes.”
“The organization makes its governing documents, conflict of interest policy, and financial statements available to the public upon request.”
“Compensation packages offered to the organization's CEO and other executives were arrived at openly, with all board members present, during a board meeting. Compensation decisions were documented contemporaneously in the board minutes.”
