Governance Explanations

Form 990, Part VI, Section A, Line 4

During the year, the organization's bylaws were updated to reduce the total number of board members authorized by three. Previously, 11-18 members were allowed, and now the total is 8-15.

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 11

Form 990 is distributed to the entire board of directors prior to filing. Form 990 is prepared by the director of finance and the independent auditors. When the draft is completed, it is reviewed by the executive director and deputy director prior to sending to the audit committee of the board of directors for review. If approved, form 990 is distributed to the entire board of directors prior to filing.

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

Nwp's conflicts of interest policy applies to board of director members and officers. The conflicts of interest committee is a standing committee of the board of directors and reviews any potential conflicts of interest on an annual basis. All board members are required to review and sign a conflicts of interest statement of agreement form each year.

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 15

To begin the annual evaluation of the executive director, the chair of the board distributes the executive director's self-review to all board members. The board of directors meets annually at the june board meeting to complete its formal review and determine the compensation of the executive director. The board also reviews compensation for key employees, including the top financial official and the deputy director. The board uses comparability data and contemporaneously substantiates the deliberation and decision.

Form 990, Part VI, Section C, Line 19

Nwp's financial statements are published annually through the dunn & bradstreet website and on guidestar.org. Nwp also publishes an annual report of program accomplishments and financial statements in summary form as a hard copy and as a pdf on nwp's website. The governing documents and policies are not shared with the public.
