Governance Explanations

Form 990, Part VI, Line 11B: Form 990 Review Process

“Each board member is given a copy of the draft 990 prior to final submission. All board members are given the opportunity to ask questions or offer suggested edits via phone and email. The finance committee of the board meets to discuss, review, and provide final approval of the draft.”

Form 990, Part VI, Line 12C: Explanation of Monitoring and Enforcement of Conflicts

“The board reviews potential conflict of interest issues on an ongoing basis. Board members are required to disclose any potential conflict of interest issues prior to debating a motion.”

Form 990, Part VI, Line 15A: Compensation Review & Approval Process - CEO, Top Management

“As part of an overall organizational compensation review, compass examines average salaries using a combination of non-profit salary surveys, online tools, and government salary levels as comparison for all compensation levels. Due to the dispersed nature of the organization, compass also takes into account cost of living differences for the various regions where staff are located. The board uses this data and their own experience to set officer and staff compensation levels.”
