Governance Explanations

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 11B

Form 990 is prepared by an independent CPA firm and reviewed in detail by the organization's top management. The reviewed Form 990 is then provided to the board of directors prior to filing with the IRS.

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

The board has a policy manual which is reviewed with every new board member and officer. One of the policies is the conflict of interest policy which new board members and officers must sign off on when they join. Once a year this is reviewed by existing board members and officers for the same purpose. Should any potential conflicts of interest be disclosed, the board member or officer would be asked to refrain from participation in any deliberation or decision with regard to matters affected by the relationship.

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 15A

The CEO's compensation is set by a committee of independent board members after review of independent compensation data and evaluation of performance. The organization utilizes multiple compensation comparability reports to assist in determining fair and reasonable compensation. The final compensation is approved at the board meeting and the process is documented in the minutes. Part VI, Section B, Line 15b: The organization does not compensate any other officers or key employees. Therefore, this line was answered no in accordance with the instructions.

Form 990, Part VI, Section C, line 19

The governing documents, conflict of interest policy and financial statements are available upon request.

Form 990, Part VII:

Compensation reported in Part VII, column D is the amount reported on the individual's W-2, box 1 or 5 (whichever amount is greater) per the IRS instructions. In the case of minister's compensation when box 5 of the W-2 is not applicable, box 1 compensation is used. Employee deferrals to qualified retirement plans are normally captured in box 5, not box 1 of Form W-2. For reporting purposes we have included the minister's retirement plan deferrals in Part VII, column F.

IRS990/Desc0Administer Justice empowers vulnerable neighbors with the help of a lawyer and the hope of God's love through the home of the church. Our vision is to see 1,000 Gospel Justice Centers transforming lives in the name of Christ. These centers are in neighborhood churches across the country. Administer Justice trains volunteers for nine distinct roles that simplify justice through a fully supported, turnkey operation.Each Gospel Justice Center requires $5,000 to open but once opened is fully sustained through $30 client copays. Donors support the funds to launch a center and clients keep the doors open as they contribute a small amount toward the help and hope they receive through a center. (Continued on Sch O)Administer Justice has three unique distinctives that combined differentiate our legal ministry services from all other organizations: A) we affirm dignity and sustainability; B) we are Biblical and holistic; C) we are church-led, team supported and neighborhood based.In 2021, we launched a new campaign to Open the Gates for Justice and Hope by establishing 300 Gospel Justice Centers by the end of 2025. We entered a new partnership with The Salvation Army in the Western Territory, received two significant lead gifts, and increased the number of centers from 35 to 57. These centers were served by 136 volunteer attorneys and 299 trained support volunteers who together served 3,140 neighbors in need.

IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt0Form 990 is prepared by an independent CPA firm and reviewed in detail by the organization's top management. The reviewed Form 990 is then provided to the board of directors prior to filing with the IRS.
IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt1The board has a policy manual which is reviewed with every new board member and officer. One of the policies is the conflict of interest policy which new board members and officers must sign off on when they join. Once a year this is reviewed by existing board members and officers for the same purpose. Should any potential conflicts of interest be disclosed, the board member or officer would be asked to refrain from participation in any deliberation or decision with regard to matters affected by the relationship.
IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt2The CEO's compensation is set by a committee of independent board members after review of independent compensation data and evaluation of performance. The organization utilizes multiple compensation comparability reports to assist in determining fair and reasonable compensation. The final compensation is approved at the board meeting and the process is documented in the minutes. Part VI, Section B, Line 15b: The organization does not compensate any other officers or key employees. Therefore, this line was answered no in accordance with the instructions.
IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt3The governing documents, conflict of interest policy and financial statements are available upon request.
IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt4Compensation reported in Part VII, column D is the amount reported on the individual's W-2, box 1 or 5 (whichever amount is greater) per the IRS instructions. In the case of minister's compensation when box 5 of the W-2 is not applicable, box 1 compensation is used. Employee deferrals to qualified retirement plans are normally captured in box 5, not box 1 of Form W-2. For reporting purposes we have included the minister's retirement plan deferrals in Part VII, column F.
