“The organization purchased a copy of "Fair Pay for Northern California Nonprofits: The 2019 Compensation & Benefits Survey Report" produced by Nonprofit Compensation Associates, Inc. to inform a benchmarking report based on comparable data for similarly qualified persons at similar organizations. The Operations Director presented this to the Board Chair and Treasurer, who used it to establish compensation of the Executive Director for 2020. The organization purchases the compensation report in odd-numbered years to inform a new benchmarking report every 2 years. In intervening years, the salary range is informed by the last available benchmarking report with adjustments (including cost of living) in line with organizational budgetary capacity. This process ocurred last in 2019.”
