“The executive committee consists of the chair, vice chair, secretary, and treasurer. The committee has the power to exercise all the authority of the board of trustees in the management of the business and affairs of the corporation between board meetings.”

“The form 990 is prepared by an independent public accounting firm using information provided by the organization. A draft of form 990 is reviewed in its entirety by the chief executive officer and chief financial officer, who compare the data and written statements to original, source documentation submitted to the tax preparers. Upon approval by the chief executive officer, the reviewed form 990 is sent to the finance committee of the board of trustees for review, questions, and recommendation for approval by the board of directors. Upon approval by the board of directors, form 990 is signed by the chief executive officer and is filed. Copies of the final, executed returns are filed for permanent archiving in accordance with the records retention and disposal policy, both in hard copy and electronic formats.”

“The conflict of interest policy applies to all trustees as well as others who serve on the board committees and/or task forces. If a conflict of interest arises, the member with the conflict is expected to disclose in writing the existence of the conflict to the board chair as soon as that member is aware of the conflict. The board chair will, in turn, determine the appropriate method for managing the conflict. Annual disclosure forms are completed to document actual and potential conflicts of interest and immediate written notice to the board chair if a conflict arises. The conflict of interest policy and any conflicts reported are monitored by the governance committee. If a conflict is identified, it is noted in the board minutes and the individual abstains from voting on that matter.”

“It is the practice of the breakthrough collaborative board of trustees to evaluate, assess, and set the compensation level of the chief executive officer using a combination of factors including experience, education, background, skills, compensation & benefits data for organizations of similar size, function, and scope.

Since that time, the board of trustees has conducted one annual review of the chief executive officer's performance which last occured in june 2019.”
