“Form 990 is reviewed and signed by the executive director prior to filing.”

“Each director, principal officer and member of the committee (if any) with governing board delegated powers, annually signs a statement which affirms such person has received a copy of the conflict of interest policy, read and understands the policy, agreed to comply with the policy, and understands the organization is charitable and in order to maintain its federal tax exemption it must engage primarily in activities which accomplish one or more of its tax-exempt purposes. If a potential conflict is disclosed, it is the duty of the remaining board or committee members to determine if a conflict of interest is present. If a conflict of interest is found, the interested person is excused from the discussion and vote. All deliberation and decisions are documented in the meeting minutes.”

“The organization's governing documents, financial statements, form 1023 and 990 are available in office at any time.”
