Explanation
990 Review Process
Part VI, Question 10
The form 990 return is prepared by a third party and goes through a detailed review by the controller and CFO of the organization. Once reviewed, the return is then presented to the Audit committee of the board where they will conduct a secondary review and recommend the filing of the 990 to the board of directors. Once approval is made, a final copy of the 990 will be sent to the board via email and the 990 will be electronically filed with the IRS.
Describe how conflict of interest policy is monitored & enforced
Part VI, Question 12c
The organization has a comprehensive corporate compliance program which covers staff and directors. Compliance is monitored through internal audits of billing, medical charting, accounting, and the compliance program itself. The organization educates staff on compliance on an ongoing basis and conducts an annual on-line questionnaire to confirm staff understanding of the program. The program utilizes a hotline for reporting of suspected compliance issues. The hotline is run by a third party vendor and offers anonymity to the reporter. The staff is educated on the hotline's use and access on an ongoing basis and this knowledge is an important part of the annual staff questionnaire. Designated personnel working in areas affecting compliance report to the board of directors compliance committee on a quarterly basis. The compliance committee reports directly to the board. The conflict of interest policy applies to all board members and to all staff of all companies. The committee or the board may make determinations of whether or not an actual conflict of interest exists. The individual with the conflict cannot participate in the decision making process and is not permitted to vote on the proposed transaction creating the conflict. The committee or the board may investigate any suspected failures to report a conflict and may take appropriate disciplinary action or corrective action.
Describe process for determining CEO compensation
Part VI, Question 15a
In 2012, the Sr. Vice President of Human Resources and the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors reviewed the 2012 salary survey data from Economic Research Institute (ERI), Mental Health Corporations of America (MHCA), Mountain States Employers Council (MSEC), and 990's of similar organizations. This information was then presented to the full Board by the Board Chair, along with annual compensation recommendations for the CEO. These discussions were held in executive session, so they were not recorded in the Board minutes.

FORM 990, PART III, 4A
Colorado Springs this past year was the sight of the worst forest fire in the history of the state. It was an incredible sight and images of the calamity were played on television newscasts and Web sites across the globe for many nights after. The footage of the flames and the destruction left behind is truly amazing but it's not nearly as amazing as the community's response to the fire and its victims. AspenPointe was no exception. We attended key community meetings, staffed the disaster recovery center every day, were by victims' sides as they returned to their homes, and continue to provide assistance long after the rebuilding process has begun. This is one way that AspenPointe continues to be community relevant, and is one of the three areas under which we list our accomplishments last year. The other two categories are "Integrated" and "Innovative." COMMUNITY RELEVANT - Call Center expanded its hours to seven days a week and achieved world-class benchmark metric of 20 seconds or less on average for answering calls. - Finished the Playscape project at Parkside campus for clients and community members. - 125 juvenile offenders completed restorative justice victim offender conferences with only a 17 percent recidivism rate. - 1,390 clients served in our education programs (higher than any year prior), including 617 GED graduates. - Provided mental health services for almost 5,000 clients at no cost. - Awarded the Colorado Rural Health Care Grant Program for mental health testing and therapy supplies and equipment at Bailey and Fairplay offices. - Received Daniels Fund grant that provided one-month rent for temporary housing for homeless veterans. - Received grant from Pikes Peak United Way to provide temporary emergency shelter (30 to 45 days) for adults with severe mental illness. INTEGRATED - Opened a new facility on Lehman Drive that houses multiple AspenPointe organizations, including a new screening center for mental health patients. - Outcome measures and tools were identified and established across the entire organization to ensure we are serving clients well and obtaining results. - Created iconic Cafe and Culinary Training Program at county Citizens Service Center, serving 47,500 customers, graduating 20 Tier-4 students and placing nine in jobs. - Partnered with the judicial system to form a Mental Health Court. - Added chronic pain management to telephonic program. - Received grant from Invest in Kids that allowed for the expansion into additional schools to prevent behavioral and emotional problems at a young age. - Renewed contracts with Civilians for Veterans Fund and Denver Options to cover services for the military and their families. INNOVATIVE - Embarked on a new assessment and treatment system to ensure clients receive the right care at the right place and at the right time. - Completed Phase I of Community Garden with $50,000 in community donations. - Peer Navigator was awarded a USO contract to help military men and women transition to the civilian world. - Disseminated SuperD - a supervision software and supervisory training tool developed in-house - to partners across the country. - Piloted and successfully implemented telecommuting program. - Completed the first year of the employee wellness program, in which nearly 50 percent of staff participated in some wellness activity. - Partnered with local group to create an Equine Therapy Program for youth. - Launched Youth Outside Program to expose at-risk youth to the outdoors to help them develop healthy habits.
