Governance Explanations

Form 990, Part VI, Section A, Line 8B

“The organization does not have committees with the authority to act on behalf of the governing body.”

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

“The organization plans to share the form 990 with the board of directors, including specifics about who conducted the audit, before it is filed with the irs.”

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

“All employees sign a conflict of interest policy at the beginning of their employment with new york focus, and this policy is also re-emphasized in our handbook, which is promoted during onboarding. Employees are expected to disclose any conflict of interest and recluse themselves from their jobs when such interests might be violated.”

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 15

“The top officers pay was reviewed by a committee of organization managers which included a review of comparable data. A committee of organization managers do a 'salary review' audit every six months to review pay and comparability data.”

Form 990, Part VI, Section C, Line 19

“On our website we make available our editorial independence and financial transparency documents, in the future we may publish annual reports that go more in detail about our finances”

Financial Statement Notes

Schedule D Part V

“Temporary restricted funds: net assets with donor restrictions contain donor-imposed restrictions that permit the organization to use or expend the assets as specified either by the passage of time and/or by action of the organization. As the restrictions are satisfied, net assets with temporary donor restrictions are reclassified to net assets without donor restrictions and reported in the accompanying statement of activities as net assets released from restrictions.”
