| Form 990, Part VI, Line 12c Conflict of interest policy | The organization has adopted a conflict of interest policy requiring all directors, officers, and key employees to submit an annual conflict of interest disclosure. The annual disclosure requires these individuals to report, in writing, any known financial interests that they or their family members have in any business entity conducting business with the organization. In addition, directors, officers, and key employees must immediately disclose any potential conflicts of interest that arise midyear in connection with a proposed transaction. The conflict of interest policy further requires that any individual with a disclosed conflict be recused from the decisionmaking process, that independent directors or committee members determine whether the proposed transaction is in the best interest of the organization, and that the transaction be approved by a vote of the independent directors or committee members without participation by any interested individual. |

The most recent compensation review was conducted in April 2025. |
