“Annually each director, officer, employee and volunteer completes a disclosure form identifying any relationships, positions or circumstances in which s/he is involved that he or she believes could contribute to a conflict of interest. This policy is reviewed annually by each member of the board of directors. A person who has a conflict of interest will not participate in or be permitted to hear the board's or committee's discussion of the matter except to disclose material facts and to respond to questions. Such person will not attempt to exert his or her personal influence with respect to the matter, either at or outside the meeting. A person who has a conflict of interest with respect to a contract or transaction that will be voted on at a meeting will not be counted in determining the presence of a quorum for purposes of the vote. In the event it is not entirely clear that a conflict of interest exists, the individual with the potential conflict discloses the circumstances to his or her supervisor or the chair or the chair's designee, who determines whether full board discussion is warranted or whether there exists a conflict of interest that is subject to this policy.”

“The board determines the compensation of the president/executive director. Their review includes compensation surveys and the process is discussed and documented. The last compensation review took place on march 15, 2020.”
