Minnesota Coalition Against Sexual Assault

“MNCASA provides support and assistance to its members. These members include sexual assault advocacy programs, ally programs and individual members throughout the state. Members receive tools, resources, and training each year to improve the effectiveness of anti-sexual violence programs in MN. Key events to support members include the annual training symposium, legal advocacy trainings, and regional meetings. MNCASA's Board of Directors also include representation from member programs. Annual membership dues account for just under 1% of MNCASA's total revenue.”

“Board members shall be elected by voting representatives of member organizations at the annual business meeting.”

“Amendments to the Organization's bylaws must be approved by a majority of voting members at the annual meeting.”

“The Executive Director and Director of Finance and HR will review the 990 in detail with the Finance Committee of the Board. Upon that review, the 990 will be e-mailed to all of the board members for review and questions. The 990 will be on the board consent agenda and formally approved at a board meeting following the review.”

“Board members are required to identify any conflict of interests or potential conflict of interests when initially on-boarded, and then annually via a Conflict of Interest Form. Records of the signed forms are kept by the board and the Board Chair has the duty to investigate there is a perception of or actual conflict of interest.”

“The Board of Directors and Executive Committee conduct an annual performance evaluation of the Executive Director. The salary range is determined by market pay rates, established through market pay studies, for people doing similar work in similar industries in the same region of the country. The pay studies used are Minnesota Nonprofit Salary & Benefits Survey and 2019 Sexual Assault Coalition Salary and Budget Report. In addition, pay rates and salary ranges are also set up by individual recognition of education, knowledge, skill, and experience needed to perform each job.”

“These documents are available upon request. Requests may be made via phone or e-mail to the Executive Director.”
