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

“Directors are required to review the conflict of interest policy anddisclose any conflicts on an annual basis.”

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 15

“1. A compensation committee is identified. If the executive in question is a member of the board, then the committee consists of the other members ofthe board, excluding the executive in question. Otherwise, the committee consists of the entire board. 2. Comparative research is performed. This includes salary surveys of comparable roles from other nonprofits, individual data points we can acquire about compensation in similar roles at other organizations, and information about alternative roles that might compete for the executive inquestion. 3. The compensation committee takes this information into account in order to determine appropriate compensation for the executive. The discussion is held at a regular or special board meeting. If the executive in question is on the board, they recuse themselves from the discussion. 4. The final decision is made in a board meeting or by unanimous written consent of the committee.”

Form 990, Part VI, Section C, Line 19

“The organization does not make its governing documents or conflict of interest policy available to the public. Form 990 and the exemption application are available to the public upon request.”
