Governance Explanations
Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 12C
“The conflict of interest policy is distributed to all new members of the Executive Committee and reviewed with them prior to their effected term of office. The President and Treasurer review and discuss possible conflicts of interest with the Executive Committee members during their quarterly meetings. If anything is brought to their attention, immediate action is taken to rectify the situation. Internal Controls are analyzed with an independent accounting firm on an annual basis and assessed to determine possible risks.”

“The President and Treasurer review the Form 990 prior to filing. Once they have approved the return, it is e-filed. The remaining members of the governing board receive a copy of the filed return at the first meeting immediately following the filing date.”
