“The organization's Form 990 undergoes a number of internal and external reviews before it is filed with the IRS. The return is prepared by the organization's public accounting firm, BDO USA, and is reviewed by the organization's Managing Director, Finance and the President and Chief Executive Officer. Form 990 is then reviewed by the Audit Committee prior to a board meeting. The form is presented to the Board by the Audit Committee chair or the Managing Director, Finance. Individually, board members are provided an electronic version of the form, so that each can review it and raise questions before the form is filed.”

“A conflict of interest is executed and signed on an annual basis by all members of the board and staff. When any expression of conflict of interest seems even remotely possible, the person(s) potentially involved shall remove himself/herself (themselves) from any process leading to recommendations or decision making relating to matters in which a conflict may exist.”

“The Board's Executive Committee serves as the Compensation Committee and makes the decision on executive compensation. The committee oversees management to conduct and provide compensation reviews and presents comparable salaries for each position.”

“The organization makes its governing documents, conflict of interest policy, and financial statements available to the public upon request. Additionally, the financial statements are posted on its website.”
