PART III, LINE 4D
ALLEVIATE HUNGER: Hunger has no boundaries. It affects every community and exists everywhere in the country. Catholic Charities' 25 food pantries are situated in many of the poorest neighborhoods, where the need for food is great. STRENGTHEN COMMUNITIES: At 19 strategically located sites, Catholic Charities' community centers are a first point of help for people in need. The centers offer supportive services aimed at breaking cycles of poverty and homelessness in communities. Each center is unique in its approach and in its delivery of help, always responding to the community's needs. In addition to providing food, clothing, rent and utilities' stipends, the centers deliver life-changing services, including: Child Abuse Prevention, English as a Second Language, Financial Literacy, GED, Preparation Healthy Marriage Tools, Homeless Prevention, Job Training, Legal Assistance, Linkages to other sources of support, Literacy Sessions, Medical Counseling and Referrals, Mental Health Treatment and Referrals, Nutrition and Healthy Food Classes, Parenting Workshops Support for Substance Abuse Recovery, Tutoring and more. PROTECT THE AGING: Catholic Charities' programs for the elderly provide compassionate in-home care. With financial assistance, nutritious food delivery and access to community resources, seniors can live dignified and independent lives. REFUGEE AND IMMIGRATION SERVICES: Catholic Charities began providing immigration assistance during World War II, when refugees sought safety on American shores. Today, most clients seeking immigration services are coming from Iraq, Iran, Haiti, Somalia, Burma and both Central and South America. Catholic Charities' immigration and refugee programs have insisted on legality, responsibility and independence. Services are structured to assist newly-arrived immigrants in learning English, obtaining education and training for jobs that will provide at least a living wage. American values and social norms are taught, as well. These programs have a proven track record of helping immigrants become productive members of society. BOARD MEMBER HAVING A FAMILY RELATIONSHIP WITH ANOTHER BOARD MEMBER PART VI, SECTION A, LINE 2 We have two married couples, Mr. Richard G D'Amico & Mrs. Susan D'Amico and Mr. Viktor Rzeteljski & Mrs. Mary Beth Rzeteljski who serve on the Board of Trustees. ORGANIZATION MEMBERS AND STOCKHOLDERS PART VI, SECTION A, LINE 6 The Incumbent Roman Catholic Archbishop of Los Angeles is the sole member of the corporation. ELECTION OF GOVERNING BODY MEMBERS BY MEMBERS PART VI, SECTION A, LINE 7A Trustees, other than those serving by virtue of being an authorized regional or program representative, are appointed by the Member. MEMBER APPROVAL OF GOVERNING BODY DETERMINATION PART VI, SECTION A, LINE 7B The Member has the sole power to approve: 1) the election, appointment or removal of any Trustee or Officer, 2) any action, amendment or repeal of the Articles of Incorporation or By-Laws, 3) the amendment or repeal of any amendment of the Board of Trustees which by its express terms is not so amendable or repealable, 4) an adoption of a plan of merger or consolidation or a voluntary dissolution of the Corporation or revocation proceedings, 5) the authorization of a sale, exchange, mortgaging or encumbering of any real property (with certain exceptions) or adoption of a plan for the distribution of the assets of the Corporation and, 6) any self-dealing transactions. FORM 990 REVIEW PROCESS PART VI, SECTION B, LINE 11B The Board of Trustees delegated the review of the Form 990 to the Audit Committee. The Audit Committee reviewed and approved the filing of the return. After the return was approved, the Form 990 was provided to all Board Members. After the form was provided to the Board members, it was electronically filed. WRITTEN CONFLICT OF INTEREST POLICY PART VI, SECTION B, LINE 12C At the beginning of each calendar year, all Trustees are required to submit a "Conflict of Interest Questionnaire." They are asked to return the questionnaire before or at the first regularly scheduled meeting of the Board of Trustees of that year. The responses are tracked by the Executive Director's Office. The names of any Trustees who have not submitted their questionnaires in a reasonable amount of time are forwarded to the Corporate Secretary who continues to personally follow up with the Trustee until the questionnaire is returned. DETERMINATION OF COMPENSATION PART VI, SECTION B, LINES 15A & 15B The Reverend Monsignor Gregory A Cox's compensation is comparable to other religious personnel, which is far less than normal executive director compensation. All other salaries (from highest to lowest) are set according ranges developed from external data derived from salary surveys and independent consultant's information. Compensation is reviewed annually. DISCLOSURE OF ORGANIZATION DOCUMENTS FORM 990, PART VI, SECTION C, LINE 19 The organization's 990 is available on Guide Star.
