Governance Explanations

Form 990, Part VI, Section A, Line 2

“A board member paid a referral fee of $2,337 to cjp for a case he took on from cjp.”

Form 990, Part VI, Section A, Line 8B

“There are no committees with authority to act on behalf of the governing body.”

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 11B

“The 990 is reviewed and approved by the executive director and board of directors prior to filing.”

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 12C

“Board members are requested to complete a conflict of interest disclosure statement annually. Any conflict of interest issues that may come to cjp's attention are raised with the board and a conflict determination is made.”

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 15

“Cjp's current practice is to request that a cjp advocate take on the role and responsibilities of executive director without any additional compensation. If cjp were to look outside the organization to hire an executive director, the organization would confer with other similar legal services programs to determine a reasonable executive director compensation.”

Form 990, Part VI, Section C, Line 19

“It has always been practice of community justice project to provide the statements upon request.”
