“The federal form 990 was first reviewed by the director of finance and outside counsel. It was then approved by the executive director and the vp of organizational advancement. The final draft was then forwarded to the board of directors before filing with the internal revenue service.”

“Upon or before hire, election, or appointment, each employee and board member provides a full written disclosure of all direct or indirect financial interests that could potentially result in a conflict of interest. Employees and board members disclose any interests in a proposed transaction or decision that may create a conflict of interest. After disclosure, the employee or board member will not be permitted to participate in the transaction or decision. Should there be any dispute as to whether a conflict of interest exists: 1) the executive director determines whether a conflict of interest exists for an employee, and determines the appropriate response. 2) the board of directors determines whether a conflict of interest exists for the executive director or a board member, and determines the appropriate response. If the board or executive committee has reasonable cause to believe a member has failed to disclose actual or possible conflicts of interest, it informs the member of the basis for such belief and affords the member an opportunity to explain the alleged failure to disclose. If, after hearing the member's response and after making further investigation as warranted by the circumstances, the board or committee determines the member has failed to disclose an actual or possible conflict of interest, it takes appropriate disciplinary corrective action.”

“The compensation of the executive director involves an analysis of comparable salaries at other non-profit organizations of a similar size. The final compensation is reviewed and approved by the board of directors, in addition to being documented via email. The executive director whose salary is under review abstained from the debate and vote. The executive director approves compensation for the vp of organizational advancement and the vp of advocacy and membership. The last date of compensation review took place in march 2023.”

“Governing documents, conflict of interest policy, and financial statements are available upon request.”
