“The committees make recommendations to the full board, so they do not make any significant decisions outside of the full board.”

“A draft of the form 990 was emailed to all board members with a request for questions, comments or recommended changes or additions.”

“The conflict of interest policy is disseminated to the board and board members are asked to acknowledge their compliance with the policy. To ensure that reach operates in a manner consistent with its charitable purposes and that it does not engage in activities that could jeopardize its status as an organization exempt from federal income tax, periodic reviews shall be conducted. The periodic reviews shall, at a minimum, include the following subjects: 1. Whether compensation arrangements and benefits are reasonable and are the result of arm's-length bargaining; 2. Whether acquisitions of provider services result in inurement or impermissible private benefit; 3. Whether partnerships, joint ventures, and arrangements with management conform to reach's written policies, are properly recorded, reflect reasonable investment or payments for goods and services, further reach's charitable purposes and do not result in inurement, impermissible private benefit or in an excess benefit transaction. 4. Whether agreements to provide services and agreements with other organizations and their employees further reach's charitable purposes and do not result in inurement or impermissible private benefit.”
