Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 15A

“Compensation setting and reviews are executed by researching similar or same job titles in the same city/region across three salary platforms (Salary.com, Glassdoor, and Indeed.com) to understand the current market rate for the position. Additionally, similar open job listings are reviewed on LinkedIn and other relevant job posting platforms to further understand the current local market and trends. The Executive Director then makes recommendations to the Board of Directors to approve salary or salary increases.”
