Governance Explanations

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

“The Board Chair reviews Form 990 before providing a copy to all board members and filing with the IRS.”

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

“The conflict of interest policy is distributed annually to the Board, and signatures affirming understanding of the policy are obtained. Responses are collected, and any conflicts are discussed with the Chief Executive Officer and Board Chair and then reported to the entire Board. If the Board considers an issue involving a financial relationship between the organization and a member of the Board, the board member will disclose their financial relationship concerning the issue. The conflicted Board member will refrain from voting on the matter.”

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 15

“The CEO's salary is based on a wage and benefits survey conducted by United Way of Greater Houston. The survey of local nonprofits considers agency size, budget, and responsibilities in its salary assessment. The Board approves the CEO's salary. The CEO approves all other wages. All employees undergo a review by supervisors before being eligible for salary changes.”

Form 990, Part VI, Section C, line 19

“The organization makes available governing documents, conflict of interest policy, and financial statements to the public by request, others' websites, mail, or e-mail.”
