“The bylaws were amended in march 2017 to establish an audit committee as a standing committee of the board of directors. The audit commitee is composed of the treasurer and at least two other directors. The audit committee retains independent accountants for the corporation, and in cooperation with the independent accountant, prepares and approves the annual audit reports of the financial activity of the corporation and the 990 in the fall of each calendar year. The executive director and director of finance and administration participate in the selection of the auditor and preparation of the audit and form 990. The audit and form 990 are reviewed and approved by the audit commitee. The form 990 is then distributed to all board members and then submitted to the irs.”
“Conflict of interest disclosure forms are completed annually and executed by each board member, staff, and volunteer. The forms are reviewed by the executive director and legal director. Failure to submit a disclosure is grounds for removal.”
“The board annually reviews salary for the executive director. Comparative salary data is sought from national and maryland civil legal aid providers and from comparable maryland state government positions.”
“Available on candid (formerly guidestar)”
“Items are available upon request.”
“Current projects include advocating on behalf of families needing healthcare and benefits, workers paid low wages, tenants with low incomes, and students facing exclusionary school discipline and school policing; advocating to reform pretrial detention; using appellate cases to establish good law in poverty and civil rights cases; and coordinating a national coalition that works to establish a right to counsel in basic human needs civil cases.”
“No change during the tax year.”
“The organization follows the provision of accounting for uncertainty in income taxes under the income taxes topic of the codification. The codification requires the evaluation of tax positions, which includes maintaining its tax-exempt status and the taxability of any unrelated business income and does not allow recognition of tax positions which do not meet a "more-likely-than-not" threshold of being sustained by the applicable tax authority. Management does not believe it has taken any tax positions that would not meet this threshold. The organization's income tax returns are subject to possible federal examination, generally for three years after they are filed.”
