| Explanation | The Organization's initial tax year covered the reporting period of May 8, 2020 to December 31, 2020. Accordingly, the Organization's initial tax year, as reported on its 2020 Form 990, was a short-year tax return, and the 2020 column on Schedule A, Part II, therefore represents a short tax year. | ExplanationTxt |

| Form 990, Part VI, Section A, line 2 | Carey Turnbull and Claudia Turnbull, who both served on the institute's board of directors, share a family relationship. |
| Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 11b | The Form 990 is prepared by an independent CPA firm and is then reviewed by the Financial Committee, which is composed of the Chairman of the board, president, and treasurer. Prior to filing the Form 990, all board members receive a copy of the return, with instructions drawing their attention to certain aspects of the Form. Board members are strongly encouraged to review the return, ask questions, and to provide feedback. |
| Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 12c | Each board member is required to sign a conflict of interest policy-statement each year, and to identify on this form any direct or indirect conflicts that may exist. If a board member has a direct or indirect conflict of interest, the member is required to recuse themselves from any deliberations and decision-making that is related to the conflict. All recusals are documented in the minutes. |
| Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 15a | The chair of the Institute's board also serves the organization as its medical director, and is compensated at a contracted rate of $129 per hour. The rate was determined by comparing the chair's role, expertise, and services offered to those of Dr. Michael Bogenschutz while Dr. Bogenschutz was serving as the Director of Psychiatric Research at the University of New Mexico in 2015; at such time, Dr. Bogenschutz was compensated at a rate of $150 per hour. The board determined that Dr. Bogenschutz's role with the University of New Mexico was similar in nature to the Institute's chair and medical director position; accordingly, the board based the compensation paid to its chair on this rate. The acting-chair did not participate in this deliberation and subsequent decision.. |
| Form 990, Part VI, Section C, line 19 | The Institute's governing documents, the conflict of interest policy, and financial statements are available to the public upon request (postage and printing charges incurred while providing the requested materials will be applied). Individuals may request documents by phone, mail, or email. |
