Governance Explanations

Form 990, Page 6, Part VI, Line 11B

“A copy is provided to all board members prior to filing. Each board member is asked to certify their review of the form and approve submitting it to the irs.”

Form 990, Page 6, Part VI, Line 12C

“Directors and officers of nwac annually fill out a conflict of interest form which contains disclosures regarding potential conflicts that directors and officers may have with nwac. Each person annually signs a statement that affirms such person: a. Has received a copy of the conflicts of interest policy, b. Has read and understands the policy, c. Has agreed to comply with the policy, and d. Understands that nwac is a charitable organization and in order to maintain its federal tax exemption it must engage primarily in activities which accomplish one or more of its tax-exempt purposes.”

Form 990, Page 6, Part VI, Line 15A

“The organization has 3 employees, all relatively low paid: executive director, program director and admin assistant. The board annually approves a contract for each employee and establishes their salaries based on the market, what other non-profits pay, and what the organization can afford.”

Form 990, Page 6, Part VI, Line 15B

“No other officers received compensation and only two other persons received monetary compensation by nwac: the program manager and the administrative assistant.”
