“The 990 is reviewed by the organization's governing body before filing with the irs.”

“The principal purpose of this policy is to help the organization and covered persons such as employees, board members and other insiders avoid real or perceived conflicts with the organization and to properly disclose and manage the conflicts that cannot be avoided. For that reason, the employees and board will be held accountable to read, understand and fully comply with this policy. In addition, all board members and staff will sign a copy of the policy acknowledging that they have read and understood the policy. In the event of a potential conflict involving board members, it is the obligation of the board member to bring the matter to the attention of the president of the board who will refer the matter to the executive committee (excuse self if involved) of the board that will review, make recommendations and disclose actions taken at the next board meeting. Staff with potential conflicts will disclose them in writing to the organization chair who will review them, take appropriate actions and report substantive conflict issues to the executive committee of the board on a regular basis. Individuals with a potential conflict of interest will not be present during executive committee and board of director discussions pertaining to the potential conflict unless their presence is absolutely necessary to provide pertinent information. While it is always best to avoid conflicts, there may be occasions in which the conflict is unavoidable. In such instances, the executive committee or chair, will document the following information in writing: the facts and circumstances surrounding the potential conflict, justification for proceeding with the potential conflict and the recommended course of action to be taken to mitigate actions will include recusal and absence of him or herself from any involvement in discussions or decisions pertaining to the potential conflict. If this involves a board member, the minutes of such meeting where a discosure is made shall reflect the disclosure, that the member having a possible conflict of interest abstained from voting, that such member was not present at the time of the vote and that such member was not counted in determining the quorum for the meeting.”

“The compensation for the executive director is reviewed annually by the board of directors.”

“The organization makes its governing documents, conflict of interest policy, and financial statements available to the public upon request.”
