| Form 990, Part VI, Line 11b: Form 990 Review Process | The forms are prepared based on audited financials. The Executive Director and Deputy Director review copies. A Copy is reviewed by the Board President and Final is provided to the Board. |
| Form 990, Part VI, Line 12c: Explanation of Monitoring and Enforcement of Conflicts | The conflict of interest policy requires all officers, directors, managers to disclose annually if they or their family members have any conflicts with any organization that CIL pays or that pays CIL. Any disclosures of such conflicts are reviewed by the Board Chair and the conflicted party must abstain from participation in deciding matters related to transactions with the other entity. The policy is broader than the standard policy provided by the Service, in its scope, regarding both covered persons and of types of transactions. |
| Form 990, Part VI, Line 15a: Compensation Review & Approval Process - CEO, Top Management | While not done formally with saved written substantiation, each year, prior to setting the very modest compensation of the E.D. in the course of approving the annual budget, the organization informally surveys a number of comparable organizations. First are two or three other dynamic independent living centers in the region, and next the half-dozen or more disability rights and services organizations who share the "Eric Roberts Campus" office building named after an early disablility rights pioneer. Based on these comparisons and board members' community experience, an amount is determined, too often unchanged from the prior year. |
| Form 990, Part VI, Line 19: Other Organization Documents Publicly Available | CIL provides a PDF of the public disclosure copy of its three most recent Forms 990 and Form 1023 to any member of the public who requests it. The annual audited financial statements are publicly available in California by law. While it has not been asked recently, CIL's management would consider any request for a copy of CIL's Conflict of Interest Policy, Articles of Incorporation and/or Bylaws on a case by case basis but the default position is to provide the copies in the interest of transparency and openness. CIL files a copy of its annual audited financial statements with the California Attorney General's Registry of Charitable Trusts at the time it files Form 990. The Registry scans it and posts iton the publicly accessible web. |
