Governance Explanations

Form 990, Part VI, Section A, Line 8B

There are no committees that have the authority to act on behalf of the governing body.

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

Controller reviews initial draft with outsourced tax preparer. Once ready, senior financial officer, executive leadership, and board of directors review for acceptance, followed by filing.

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

The board members sign a conflict of interest disclosure each year. If a conflict is noted it would be evaluated by the board chair, ceo and governance committee. The board chair oversees this process to ensure that it occurs on an annual basis.

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 15

Compensation for the ceo is reviewed and approved by independent persons/the board of directors. Comparability data (salaries of similar organizations ceo per 990s) is given to the board when making this decision. A majority vote must take place in order to approve salary changes. This is documented in employee file.

Form 990, Part VI, Section C, Line 18

Public charities annual filing websites

Form 990, Part VI, Section C, Line 19

Governing documents (by-laws, articles of incorporation, etc.) and financial statements are made available to the public through the public charities annual filings website as well as the organization's website.
