Board members, officers and staff have the responsibility to disclose the existence of any conflict or appearance of a conflict to the President/CEO or the Chair of the Board of Directors at the earliest possible time. The board member, officer or staff with the conflict or potential for appearance of conflict is expected to excuse himself or herself from any involvement in any decision related to the matter. This does not prevent a board member, officer or staff member from briefly stating his/her position in the matter, or from answering pertinent questions related to the matter.”

The board approves the CEO's compensation and benefits per the recommendation of the Executive Committee, and conducts an annual review of the CEO's performance. Any board members with a potential conflict of interest must recuse themselves from the compensation recommendation. A review of Executive compensation paid by comparable nonprofit and for-profit organizations for functionally comparable positions is conducted to support the Board's compensation decisions and to guard against any excess benefit transaction. This process is documented.”
