Governance Explanations

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

“Form 990 is prepared by the organization's independent accountants. A draft of the return is first reviewed by the ceo, cfo, and finance manager. A final draft is provided to the finance and audit committee of the board prior to filing.”

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

“All directors are required to sign disclosure statements annually to affirm they have received a copy of the policy, understand and agree to comply with the policy. No director may vote on any matter in which he or she has a conflict of interest. Directors who disclose a conflict of interest will not participate in discussions on related transactions. The board has the right to use comparability data on decisions where interested parties are affected.”

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 15

“In 2021, the organization adopted a revised process to determine ceo compensation. An independent compensation consultant reviewed compensation surveys and performed an analysis of 990's of comparable nonprofits. The consultant provided a report of the findings to a board compensation committee and the final salary figure for the ceo was recommended by the committee and approved by the board. An executive employment agreement was established based on the revised process and is subject to renewal based on the board's performance evaluation of the ceo beginning in december 2023.”
