“The organization regularly and consistently monitors compliance with its conflict of interest policy. Trustees and officers review the policy on an annual basis and sign a statement confirming their adherence. Similarly, all employees sign a form acknowledging their understanding and compliance with the policy, which is reviewed with them during the onboarding process. Each individual is required to disclose any circumstances that may present a potential conflict of interest at the time of signing. The policy is also included in the organization's staff handbook, which employees are routinely referred to for guidance on relevant policies. If an employee becomes aware of a personal, familial, or business relationship that could reasonably be perceived as a potential conflict of interest, they are required to inform the president. The president then follows the policy's prescribed procedures to determine whether a conflict exists and the appropriate course of action. In cases involving a trustee or the president, the chair of the board is notified and is responsible for executing the policy's conflict resolution process.”
