“The executive committee consists of the officers of the board of directors and the past-chair if they remain a current board member.

The executive committee conducts the preliminary evaluation of the ceo and makes recommendations to the full board accordingly.”

“Prior to filing, the form 990 was reviewed by the organization's cfo and ceo, by the finance committee, and by the board of directors.”

“The organization's conflict of interest policy applies to all board members, members of a committee with board-delegated powers, and officers. If a person has an actual or potential conflict, they disclose its existence and all material facts. That individaul then leaves the meeting while the remaining individuals vote on whether a conflic exists. If a conflict exists, the board or a committee takes appropriate steps to determine whether the transaction would be in the organization's best interest. If no better transaction can be identified, the disinterested board of committee members vote on whether to enter the transaction. If an individual violates the conflict of interest policy, the board of directors will take appropriate disciplinary and corrective actions. Each individual is required to sign a statement when they are elected or appointed to the position. Periodic reviews are conducted.”
