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

“Staff and Board members sign a form every year where they can list any potential conflicts of interest.

If there is even the appearance of a potential conflict, staff and board members are requested to disclose it on the form. The forms are collected and reviewed by the Executive Director and Board of Directors, and any conflicts or potential conflicts are reviewed and discussed in order to take appropriate action.”

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 15

“The salary for the Executive Director is determined by the Executive Committee of the Board of Directors and is based on performance, comparable salaries, required skills, and position responsibility.

Supplemental Narrative

Additional Explanations

Form 990, Page 7, Section A, 1A

“In addition to her salary from the Organization, Judith Gall, Executive Director, was paid $33,600 directly by Chicago Area Project (CAP) which also provided health insurance benefits for Ms. Gall. A part of her compensation is paid by CAP for work done by Alternatives for CAP. They are not related parties and therefore her salary and benefits from CAP are not reported on page 7.”
