“The form 990 will be reviewed by the Executive Director and Finance Committee of the Board upon its completion. The content will be discussed at a finance committee meeting prior to filing and prior to presentation to the board. At the board meeting, the board will approve the content and filing of the form 990.”

“Annually, all Officers, members of the Board of Directors, members of the Advisory Committee and key staff are asked to complete an annual disclosure statement regarding potential conflict of interest with Relate's activities. If something arises after the annual disclosure is made, then individuals are asked to disclose any potential conflicts at the earliest practical time. Conflict of interest statements are secured and reviewed annually by our audit firm with any conflict of interest being reported to the Executive Director. Also, at meetings of the Board of Directors, all disclosures of real or apparent conflict of interest shall be noted for the record in the minutes.”

“It is the policy of Relate that the compensation paid to its employees is reasonable and competitive in relations to comparable positions in similarly situated organizations, subject to budgetary considerations. The Executive Committee of the Board of Directors serves as the compensation committee with regard to setting the Executive Director's compensation. The Executive Director will set compensation in consultation with the Personnel Committee. Members of the Personnel Committee with a conflict of interest must recuse themselves from such action and may not participate in nor be present during any discussions, deliberations, or decisions of either the Executive or Personnel Committee. The Executive Committee sets the compensation of the Executive Director, with input from the Personnel Committee, and approves the compensation of all employees on the form 990. The Executive Director salary, and that off all other key staff, is presented at an annual board meeting for final approval. The Executive Director sets the compensation of all other employees in accordance with the procedures set out in its Compensation Policy. The Executive Committee and Executive Director use comparability data prior to and in connection with the determination and approval of all compensation and benefits data from comparative tax exempt and, in some cases, taxable organizations for functionally comparable positions requiring similar skills, education, and experience; the location of the organization, independent pay surveys, the number of employees and the assets, budget or revenues supervised, and any other unusual challenges. The Executive Director is required to document all aspects of all proceedings regarding the comparability data. These processes were last performed in December of 2017.”

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

“The process has not changed in the current year.”
