Governance Explanations

Form 990, Page 6, Part VI, Line 11B

“The form 990 is reviewed by all board members in detail prior to filing. The board members referenced a best-practices guide for 990 review prepared by an accounting firm. Questions are addressed to the preparer in a timely fashion. A final draft version is then provided to, and approved by, the board before filing.”

Form 990, Page 6, Part VI, Line 12C

“When joining the board, each new member signs a board member agreement which includes certifying that they have received and reviewed all organizational policies, including the conflict of interest policy. Each transaction that involves a member of the board is reviewed in accordance with the conflicts of interest policy.”

Form 990, Page 6, Part VI, Line 15A

“The organization reviews compensation for the co-ceo's annually. The compensation committee, which is comprised of board members other than officers of the organization, evaluates each officer based on performance and whether the previous year's goals were met. The salary range for each officer was determined using comparable information from guidestar and the charity navigator ceo compensation study.”

Form 990, Page 6, Part VI, Line 19

“The literacy lab makes its governing documents, conflicts of interest policy and financial statements available for public inspection upon request. In addition, the literacy lab will maintain its form 990 in guidestar's database of information of non-profit organizations.”
