“Members of the Board are required to file with the Chairman a statement listing relationships that may constitute a conflict of interest. The Conflict of Interest Policy outlines and elaborates issues regarding conflicts and what should be done if a conflict should occur. It is a detailed document and each Board member reviews and signs the agreement every year.”
“The governing documents, conflict of interest policy, financial statements and IRS 990 are available to the public upon written request.”
“OTHER PROGRAM SERVICES 4: In addition to the three programs listed in Form 990, Part III, line 4 a-c, BEAR provides services and support for children in Child Protective Services custody. Some of these children are in foster care until they reach the age of majority at age 18. Graduation from High School usually coincides with the aging out of the foster care system. The Preparation for Adult Living (PAL) program is designed to help prepare these youths for the transition into adulthood. BEAR celebrates the graduation from High School of the PAL youth each year by having a party. In 2016 the BEAR Graduation Celebration program provided gifts to 75 Graduates and received services from 30 volunteers. Graduation gifts are purchased for the youth to assist them with living independently.”
