“The board of directors budget committee works with the tax preparer to populate the form 990. The budget committee reviews and reconciles the details in the form 990 to financial records. The board of directors is then given an opportunity to review the full return, ask questions, and confirm it accurately reflects the organizations activities and governance. The board documents this review occurred prior to filing the form 990.”
“The organization has a written conflict of interest policy applicable to directors, officers, and key persons. Covered individuals are required to disclose potential conflicts annually and as they arise. Disclosures are reviewed, conflicted persons recuse themselves from deliberations and voting, and the organization documents the process in its records.”
“The board of directors determines and approves the compensation of the executive director and other key employees through an independent review and approval process. In making these determinations, the board reviews appropriate comparability data and considers the individuals role, qualifications, performance, and the organizations financial resources. Individuals whose compensation is under review do not participate in the discussion or approval of their compensation. Compensation decisions are approved in advance and decisions documented in the board minutes.”

“The form 990 is made available for the public to be viewed through the irs website and third-party databases such as guidestar/candid and propublica. The organization directs individuals to view through these websites.”
