Governance Explanations

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

The board will receive the 990 via email for review and it will be discussed at the next board meeting as requested by them.

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

The board reviews the conflict of interest policy annually, new board members will complete questionnaires upon joining, then annually with the other board members. Outside of this time-line the organization would ask for a questionnaire to be updated if they are made tertiarily aware of any changes for a specific board member.

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 15

We hired a compensation firm, prm consulting, to conduct a market analysis of our pay bands and to benchmark salaries and total compensation packages for specific positions, including the ceo and other key employees, including vice president, director of finance, communications director, and policy director. The analysis included comparability data for nonprofits of similar size within the washington, dc metropolitan area. This data was reviewed by board members to determine ceo pay and is used to assess compensation for positions across the organization.
