Explanation

Form 990, Part VI, Line 11b: Form 990 Review Process

Management reviewed a draft of the form 990 with the audit/finance committee and provided edits to the tax preparer. After this process was performed, the form 990 was sent to the full board of directors prior to being filed with the IRS.

Form 990, Part VI, Line 12c: Explanation of Monitoring and Enforcement of Conflicts

The organization has a "board approved" conflicts of interest policy. Each board member must fill out an annual declaration stating they had no conflicts or identifying the nature of their interested party transactions.

Form 990, Part VI, Line 15b: Compensation Review and Approval Process for Officers and Key Employees

Each year, the executive committee reviews comparable salaries based on a recognized study and reviews the performance of the executive director to determine if the existing salary falls within these ranges. After a deliberation of this matter, a new proposed salary and benefit package is voted on. The minutes of the board of directors reflect the nature of this process.
