Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 11B

Prior to submission to the irs, form 990 is provided to the board for review.

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 12C

All are required to sign an agreement to be bound by the provisions of the conflict of interest policy for the duration, and inform the organization of any reportable changes as soon as they occur. In addition, the board monitors all transactions, contracts and agreements of the organization.

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 15

Compensation of ceo is determined by an examination of comparable date for other ceo's in the industry countrywide and in the chicagoland area. The information from that research is shared with the board of directors who then approve compensation for the ceo. Note that an independent consultant is not utilized in the process. The ceo does not participate in the voting and approval of compensation. For other officers and key employees, the compensation process is the same with the ceo having full discretion as delegated by the board of directors.

Form 990, Part VI, Section C, Line 19

All governing documents, policies, and financial statements are available upon request.
