“The organization's conflict of interest policy covers all directors, trustees, officers, and key employees (interested persons). The organization's management determines whether conflicts of interest exist for transactions involving employees, while the organization's board of directors determines whether conflicts of interest exist for transactions involving directors. If it is determined that a conflict of interest exists, then the appropriate party would be excused from deliberating, deciding or voting on a matter in which a conflict exists. Interested persons are required to disclose conflicts of interest through a formal conflict of interest questionnaire on an annual basis.”

The determinations regarding directors' compensation are documented on a timely basis. The process for determining compensation for the director of operations was last undertaken in 2013.”
