| Desc | See Schedule O.ResearchAICR RESEARCH PROGRAMSScientific study of the relationship of diet, physical activity, and weight management to cancer risk and survivorship continues to be the primary focus of American Institute for Cancer Research (AICR) research investment and activities. Evidence shows that weight management, physical activity, food and nutrition play important roles in cancer prevention, treatment and survivorship. Research shows that approximately 40% of all cancers could be prevented if everyone reached and maintained a healthy weight, followed the recommendations for regular physical activity, consumed a healthy diet, avoided use of tobacco products and followed appropriate screening and vaccination guidelines. AICR is unique in its focus on preventing cancer and improving survival through diet, nutrition, body composition and physical activity. We collate and interpret the latest and most authoritative global scientific research on the links between cancer and diet, nutrition, body composition and physical activity. We then translate our findings into practical, clear, evidence-based recommendations on cancer prevention for use by health professionals, individuals and governments worldwide.In total, through FY20, AICR has committed almost $110 million for hundreds of individual research projects at universities, hospitals and research centers. AICR pioneered the funding of research examining diet and cancer and was the first organization to devote itself to studying the role of diet and other lifestyle factors in lowering cancer risk. The research that we have funded has helped transform the once-radical notion-that everyday choices can dramatically reduce cancer risk-into a universally accepted medical fact.Our multi-faceted investment in research continues across several core activities.AICR Grant ProgramThe AICR Grant Program is dedicated to funding research on cancer prevention, treatment and survival related to diet, nutrition, body composition and physical activity. In the 2020 grant cycle, we received 116 Letters of Intent (LOIs); 47 on cancer prevention, 53 on cancer survivorship and 16 covering both areas. We invited 60 applicants to submit full applications and received 58 for our grant panel to review and discuss.All applications are subjected to rigorous peer review. For the 2020 grant cycle, we welcomed a new Chair and Co-Chair to our Grant Review Panel; our new Chair was Dr. Richard Eckert, the John F.B. Weaver Distinguished Professor and Chair of the Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology and recently named Deputy Director of the University of Maryland Marlene and Stewart Greenebaum Comprehensive Cancer Center(UMGCCC). Our co-Chair was Dr. Linda Cooke, Co-Leader, Cancer Control Research Program, University of New Mexico Comprehensive Cancer Center. The Grant Review panel included 24 additional experts with the depth and breadth of expertise to evaluate the scientific merit and impact of the proposed research. Due to the restrictions imposed by the COVID-19 pandemic, the Grant Review Panel meeting was conducted virtually over three days.Reviewers:-Tessa Andermann, MD, MPH, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill-Vickie Baracos, PhD, University of Alberta-Justin Brown, PhD, Pennington Biomedical Research Center-Ximena Bustamante-Marin, PhD, University of North Carolina (Current WCRF/AICR Fellow)-Carrie Daniel-MacDougall, PhD, MD Anderson Cancer Center-Wendy Demark-Wahnefried, PhD, RD, University of Alabama at Birmingham-Christina Dieli-Conwright, PhD, MPH, Dana-Farber Cancer Institute-Joanne Elena, PhD, MPH, National Institutes of Health -Veronika Fedirko, PhD, MPH, Emory University-Stephen Freedland, MD, Cedars-Sinai Medical Center-Jeanine Genkinger, PhD, Columbia University-Stephen Hursting, PhD, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill-Elena Ladas, PhD, Columbia University-Jennifer Ligibel, MD, Dana-Farber Cancer Institute-Thomas O'Connell, PhD, Indiana University -Yikyung Park, ScD, Washington University in St. Louis -Karteek Popuri, PhD, Simon Fraser University-Bonnie Qin, PhD, Cancer Institute of New Jersey-Connie Rogers, PhD, Pennsylvania State University-Daniel Rosenberg, PhD, University of Connecticut -Kenneth Schwartz, MD, Michigan State University-Paul Spagnuolo, PhD, University of Guelph-Kathleen Sturgeon, PhD, MTR, Penn State Cancer Institute-Henry Thompson, PhD, Colorado State University-Ivan Vechetti Jr., PhD, University of Nebraska, Lincoln Funded Grants1.

Brian Focht, PhD, Ohio State University, Columbus, OHMarilyn Gentry Fellowship at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill (UNC)The AICR Marilyn Gentry Fellowship Program in Nutrition and Cancer at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill was created to develop tomorrow's leaders in nutrition research in relation to cancer. Fellows receive two years of structured mentoring while planning and conducting research. They develop a body of data that will help them compete successfully for grant funding in the future. This program has produced several graduates who have entered the nutrition-cancer field. AICR has also funded a Distinguished Professorship at UNC to chair this program. In addition, the AICR-WCRF Institute for the Advanced Study of Diet, Nutrition and Cancer is housed within the Michael Hooker Research Center on the UNC campus. These facilities include three laboratories dedicated to researching the role of diet and nutrition in the causation, prevention and treatment of cancer. The current Marilyn Gentry Fellow, Dr Ximena Bustamante-Marin, PhD, has successfully received additional external grant funding, is first author on a review paper (Mechanistic Targets and Intervention Strategies to Break the Obesity-Breast Cancer Link) and has expanded her collaborative network despite the limitations imposed by the COVID-19 pandemic.AICR Expert ReportsSince 2007, AICR and its international affiliate, the World Cancer Research Fund (WCRF), have worked together on the Continuous Update Project (CUP). The CUP has built on the systematic literature review conducted for our 2007 Second Expert Report Food, Nutrition, Physical Activity, and the Prevention of Cancer: a Global Perspective. In 2018, AICR and WCRF published Diet, Nutrition, Physical Activity and Cancer: a Global Perspective, the Third Expert Report to update both the assessment of the evidence for the impact of each factor on cancer risk and revise the Cancer Prevention Recommendations the CUP provides through timely reviews and expert panel assessments of the available peer-reviewed evidence. The CUP Reports have identified emerging research areas and knowledge gaps that could be addressed within our grant program. Equally, new data generated from studies funded through our grant program are included in the CUP review. Thus, AICR's research grant programs and the CUP act synergistically to strengthen the scientific evidence on the impact of diet, nutrition, body composition and physical activity on cancer prevention and control.Throughout FY20, the CUP has embarked on a process of evaluation and strategic planning, termed the Cup Transition, with a panel of international experts to determine the optimal directions for future research in this field. Concurrently, the CUP analysis team have completed systematic literature reviews on medical outcomes and quality of life in breast cancer survivors. | Desc |

AICR WebsiteIn February 2020, AICR launched a new website (www.aicr.org) to better serve our audiences. Our goal was to create a website that inspires users to take control of their health using research-backed cancer prevention and survivorship resources. With this goal in mind, our objectives were to give the AICR website a more modern look, to make it more user-friendly by reorganizing our resources and information and to improve our search engine optimization. The website continues to offer updated information on AICR research; healthy, cancer-protective recipes and fitness tips; and a host of interactive tools and resources on the science of lowering cancer risk. Following the launch of our Third Expert Report in May 2018, we have continued to update, edit and add content, ensuring the website reflects the latest scientific evidence. In FY20, AICR's website received over 1.2 million users (unique visitors) and page views exceeded 2.7 million.AICR's website also includes inspiring stories of impact. These are testimonials by health professionals who regularly use AICR's resources to build healthier communities through cancer centers, survivorship programs and more. These also include testimonials by people who have been directly affected by cancer or know someone who has been affected by cancer, and how they have used AICR's resources to help themselves or others navigate cancer from diagnosis through survivorship.Free E-PublicationsAICR has developed a library of e-publications that deliver the latest information on lowering cancer risk straight to subscribers' inboxes. Our e-publications are reviewed by cancer researchers, clinicians, dietitians and AICR staff. In tandem with the launch of the new website, AICR redesigned the e-publications to give them a modern look that is more visually appealing. The e-publications were also renamed to better reflect their purposes.

| Form 990, Part III, Line 4a, continued. | Scientific Presentations AICR Events Lifestyle & Cancer Evidence to Action Symposium In January 2020, AICR hosted its first one-day Lifestyle & Cancer Evidence to Action Symposium with the overall goal of reaching new audiences and ensure that AICR is recognized as the leading authority on the role of diet, weight and physical activity on cancer prevention and survival. This symposium, chaired by Dr. Kim Robien PhD, RD, LD, CSO, FAND, provided an overview of the AICR/WCRF Third Expert Report and the evidence that underpins our 10 Cancer Prevention Recommendations, presented how adherence to lifestyle recommendations can be assessed and how AICR/WCRF are providing leadership through national and international collaboration. In addition, this symposium presented examples of how the observational data synthesized by the CUP provides the foundational justification for clinical intervention trials, illustrated how AICR/WCRF's recommendations align with obesity prevention initiatives and complement cancer prevention goals, plus the contrast and commonality between population and individual-level obesity prevention. Finally, internationally acclaimed speakers highlighted how AICR's Cancer Prevention Recommendations are used as benchmarks to assess the impact of policy on lifestyle changes and provide health-care professionals with practical tips to help their patients make effective lifestyle changes.

AICR Public Policy Initiatives 2020 has been an unprecedented year for everyone. The pandemic has particularly emphasized the importance of policies to help people lead healthier lifestyles and mitigate disease, like mask-wearing and social distancing guidelines. In addition, the need for public health policies has been amplified, as research shows that people with obesity and other diet-related diseases, such as cancer, are more likely to suffer worse outcomes from COVID-19. Cancer is the second leading cause of death in the U.S. and one of the costliest health conditions. Cancer prevention involves more than just our individual choices. Public policies can make it easier-or harder-for people to make decisions that support their health. By advocating for federal policies that support cancer prevention and research, AICR is helping all Americans to lead healthy lifestyles. The Dietary Guidelines Advisory Committee (DGAC) The Dietary Guidelines for Americans inform everything from the nutrition standards for school meals that 30 million students eat, to the food packages provided to pregnant and postpartum women and young children who participate in the WIC program. AICR has been involved in every stage of the development of the 2020-2025 Dietary Guidelines for Americans. In 2020 we convened our advisory group to get the best scientific advice to support our comments, as well as engage these experts in our broader policy work. Members were: -Dr. E. Banderas, Rutgers Cancer Institute -Dr. M. Neuhouser, Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center -Dr. S. Steck, University of South Carolina, Cancer Prevention & Control Program (former WCRF/AICR UNC Fellow) -Dr. F. Tabung, The Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center -Dr. F. Zhang, Tufts University, Freidman School of Nutrition Science and Policy -Dr. C. Molmenti, Northwell School of Medicine -Dr. C. Thomson, University of Arizona, Dept. for Prevention and Health Promotion -Dr. K. Robien, George Washington University, School of Public Health We attended public meetings and listened to members deliberate decisions that shape their final recommendations to the federal government. We submitted five sets of comments to the DGAC and provided oral comments during one of the public meetings. -Our Comments on Prioritizing the Remaining Protocols February 2020 -Our Comments on Specific Dietary Patterns and Cancer Concerns Prior to the Release of the DGAC Final Report March 2020 -Dietary Guidelines Recommendations on Sugar-Sweetened Beverages June 2020 -Our Comments on the DGAC's Final Scientific Report August 2020 -Sign-On Letter Supporting the DGAC's Final Alcohol Recommendation November 2020 In our final letter, we shared our research on foods and beverages that have a strong link to cancer, particularly whole grains, food containing fiber, processed meat, red meat, dairy products and coffee so that they can consider the role of these foods not only for cancer prevention but also for good health. Our work achieved its goals, and the DGAC's final scientific report included strong recommendations regarding dietary patterns, meat, added sugar and alcohol intake, and acknowledged the connection between diet and leading cancer types. Increased Federal Funding for Cancer Research AICR wants to ensure there is increased funding for cancer research, and especially prevention. In 2020, we continued to advocate on our own and through the coalition, One Voice Against Cancer (OVAC), for an increase in funding for the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and the National Cancer Institute (NCI). In September 2020, AICR participated in the American Association for Cancer Research's virtual Rally for Medical Research, which brought over 250 national organizations to virtual meetings with members of Congress and their staff who decide the fate of cancer research funding. Attendees, including researchers, patients, caregivers and advocates shared powerful stories detailing why increased research funding is necessary for the prevention and treatment of cancer and other debilitating diseases. AICR mobilized 3 AICR grantees/supporters to help our efforts: Dr. Christina Dieli-Conwright from the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, Dr. Monica Baskin from the University of Alabama and Dr. Kelly Kenzik from Boston University. They visited their representatives on Capitol Hill through virtual meetings to explain the impact that AICR and other research funding has had on their own careers and the cancer field and advocated for increasing research funding through the appropriations bill. |
| Form 990, Part III, Line 4a, continued. | In 2020, we joined OVAC in asking for $44.7 billion for NIH for the next fiscal year, a $3 billion increase over 2020, with $6.9 billion for NCI. In 2020 the pandemic led to more urgent requests for funding and AICR participated in these advocacy efforts. We supported the provision of $10 billion in emergency relief funding to offset the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on biomedical research, and in 2020 we signed onto a letter urging the allocation of emergency funding in the Senate HEALS Act to help offset challenges faced by researchers due to the coronavirus pandemic. Access to Lifestyle Interventions for Cancer Survivors During 2020, AICR continued to advocate for federal policies that make living a cancer-protective lifestyle an easier and more inclusive goal. AICR signed on to support a bill spearheaded by the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics that was introduced this year, the Medical Nutrition Therapy Act of 2020, which extends coverage for medical nutrition therapy by Registered Dietitians (RDs/RDNs) for individuals with chronic diseases such as obesity, cancer and more. We promoted how important this bill is for cancer survivors in two blog posts. We will continue to monitor this bill and advocate for its passage. Nutrition Labelling We worked with senior staff of the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and collaborated in hosting a webinar for health professionals: Behind the Updated Label with the FDA: Nutrition Facts for Health and Cancer Prevention. Physical Activity Guidelines As part of AICR's priority to integrate cancer prevention research into government guidelines on physical activity, we have joined forces with other prominent groups such as the American Heart Association, American College of Lifestyle Medicine, American College of Sports Medicine and others to establish the Physical Activity Alliance. The core purpose of this alliance is to make the choice to be physically active the easy choice for all Americans through promoting evidence-based policies and opportunities for physical activity within different sectors of the economy. AICR is involved with several initiatives through this coalition, such as integrating a physical activity prescription into the health-care system. |
| Form 990, Part III, Line 4b, continued. | New American Plate Challenge Awareness is not enough. AICR's evidence-based materials help people learn about what they can do to protect themselves from cancer, but we also need to supply them with tools that support the kind of real, lasting behavior change that leads to lower risk. The New American Plate Challenge (NAPC) is one such tool: a free, online program for the public, consisting of a series of weekly emails and reminders that issue specific goal-oriented challenges related to AICR's 10 Cancer Prevention Recommendations. Participants engage in the weekly challenges through the NAPC website and can join and participate in the private, members' only Facebook group to give and get support from each other and NAP Challenge dietitians. The Challenge is offered twice a year and had a total of over 12,500 NAP users for FY20. The New American Plate Challenge program was in the process of being rebranded and updated in FY2020 to the Healthy10 Challenge that will launch in FY21. Cancer Health Check An easy-to-use interactive online tool to help individuals understand their risk for cancer (including reoccurrence and secondary cancer) that was developed using AICR's evidence-based Cancer Prevention Recommendations. Individuals answer a series of diet, nutrition, physical activity and other lifestyle-based questions. After completing the series of questions, a report summary is provided that highlights areas that an individual is doing well and areas to focus on for further improvement. This is a very approachable tool that is used by both the general public and by health-care providers. This online based tool was launched for Cancer Prevention Month in February 2020. There was a total of over 1,600 users/e-mails collected in February 2020 and a total of over 6,500 users/e-mails collected for FY20. This innovative tool was awarded Gold/First Place in the Digital Health Resources/Tool Category in the 2020 Fall Digital Health Awards. CancerResource Program AICR offers a free kit of advice for newly diagnosed cancer patients and their loved ones. Developed with a team of physicians, nurses, dietitians, psychologists and cancer patients, the CancerResource: Living Well with Cancer and Beyond book lays out information patients need, including Questions to Ask Your Doctor, Treatment Options, Where to Find Help, Nutrition During Treatment and much more. AICR staff can create customized packets that include specific, detailed and up-to-date printouts about any cancer. Requests for each packet are filled immediately to get this vital information to those who need it as quickly as possible. In FY20 we made CancerResource into a downloadable tool (in addition to the print version) from our website and this has increased access to this important information with downloads at a rate of 26 a month. AICR's Health Professional and Educator Community AICR's Health Professional (HP) Community provides an online destination for health professionals, featuring a wealth of interactive tools, continuing education opportunities and practical evidence-based resources for patients and clients. In FY20, AICR sent monthly research and practice updates to more than 4,500 plus active members (dietitians, nurses, health educators, physicians, researchers, wellness professionals and others) so members could connect with AICR-and with each other-at hospitals, clinics, cancer centers, universities and departments of health. In FY20 we offered 7 new downloadable fact sheets along with an updated free downloadable of the CancerResource: Living Well with Cancer and Beyond book. AICR hosted a webinar with the FDA on the new nutrition facts label. The webinar "Behind the Updated Label with FDA: Nutrition Facts for Health and Cancer Prevention" had a total of 125 live attendees, 262 registrations (email collected) and over 1,500 total video views in January 2020. AICR co-hosted a Twitter chat with the Society for Behavioral Medicine during Cancer Survivor Awareness Month on June 30, 2020, which displayed AICR's information on healthy living tips for survivors and featured AICR's experts. There was a total of 60 Twitter participants, 116 tweets and over 550,000 impressions. Programs for Cancer Survivors The overall aging of the U.S. population and changing prevalence of risk factors, including obesity, have increased the incidence of many types of cancer while advances in the early detection and treatment of cancer have led to reduced cancer mortality. These factors have combined to dramatically increase the number of cancer survivors. Nearly 17 million people in the US were living with a history of a cancer diagnosis as of January 2019. This number is projected to grow to more than 22 million by 2030 and to more than 26 million by 2040. During FY20, AICR proactively funded research, developed evidence-based information and contributed tools, resources and programs that are attuned for this growing population. Coping with Cancer in the Kitchen Designed for cancer survivors, Coping with Cancer in the Kitchen (CCK) is a unique, evidence-based, interactive, multi-disciplinary, eight-week program with the eventual option of virtual or in-person delivery. It is based on AICR's Cancer Prevention Recommendations and packaged as a turnkey program specifically for communities. Using AICR's evidence-based curriculum, CCK is jointly delivered by a local registered dietitian and a local mental health professional. Each of its eight 90 minute sessions provide cancer survivors with knowledge, skills and support to reduce their risk of a reoccurrence and secondary cancer and to improve their overall health. CCK is the answer to many cancer survivors' questions about what to do about the "cliff" that they face post-treatment as well as the answer to many health professionals who have lamented the lack of a gold-standard, multidisciplinary, evidence-based, validated and turnkey survivorship program-until now. Following the promising outcomes from the 2018 CCK pilots and the successful randomized controlled trial of additional CCK pilots in 2019, AICR convened an expert work group to review and prepare CCK curriculum content for scalability. In 2020, AICR began building the infrastructure to transition the successful CCK pilots into an application-based program available to communities across the United States. Meanwhile, the randomized controlled trial abstract was published in the Annals of Behavioral Medicine and AICR began preparing a full manuscript for submission to a journal. iTHRIVE Plan In addition to managing Coping with Cancer in the Kitchen for the survivor population, AICR also continued to actively support another program that is available for survivors online. The iTHRIVE Plan, founded by Five to Thrive, is designed for cancer survivors to heal from cancer treatment, reduce risk of reoccurrence and achieve optimal wellness. Through our website, AICR offers this engaging and easy-to-use online platform that creates personalized lifestyle-based wellness plans for cancer survivors, which include action steps in five key lifestyle areas: diet, movement, activity, rejuvenation and spirit. Using AICR's 10 Cancer Prevention Recommendations, AICR's CancerResource: Living Well with Cancer and Beyond book and our other written resources, AICR was proud to continue contributing evidence-based content to the Plan's diet, movement and activity areas and to begin contributing expert review and content to the Plan's rejuvenation and spirit areas by leveraging our growing network of psychosocial wellness experts. Toll-Free Phone Services Via AICR's toll-free number, 1-800-843-8114, members of the public can order brochures and health aids, request a free CancerResource toolkit for cancer patients, get advice from a registered dietitian (via AICR's Nutrition Hotline) and much more. The New American Plate Cookbook To place AICR's message about lowering cancer risk in a comprehensive and handsomely produced format, AICR's The New American Plate Cookbook (published by the University of California Press) is available in bookstores. Almost 35,000 copies have been sold, and all royalties support AICR cancer research. Healthy Kids Today, Prevent Cancer Tomorrow AICR also partners with Superkids Nutrition, a provider of reliable nutrition information and tools whose materials are used by over 5,000 schools in 40 states, in an education program aimed at kids, parents and teachers. The AICR Healthy Kids Today web pages http://www.aicr.org/can-prevent/healthy-kids/ feature downloadable toolkits that help instill healthy habits linked to lower cancer risk. Each toolkit features activities, recipes and a lesson plan for teachers. |
| Form 990, Part III, Line 4b, continued. | Seminars, Exhibits and Conferences In FY20, AICR staff attended, presented, networked and/or distributed materials at various conferences and annual meetings, including: -Food and Nutrition Conference and Expo-October 2019, Annual conference for registered dietitians -American College of Lifestyle Medicine-October 2019, Annual conference for lifestyle medicine providers, AICR Vice President of Research, Dr. Nigel Brockton, presented to a very well attended session. -Association of Community Cancer Centers-November 2019 and March 2020, Biannual conference for oncology professionals -American Society of Preventive Oncology-March 2020, Annual conference for cancer prevention and control investigators External Relations In FY20, AICR built deeper relationships with key national, regional and local stakeholder organizations to leverage partnerships and ensure our evidence-based message is understood and utilized. AICR proactively joined additional organizations' committees and served on advisory panels, work groups and expert forums to build visibility and awareness of our mission. -The American College of Lifestyle Medicine (ACLM) featured AICR's Vice President of Research, Dr. Nigel Brockton, and Senior Nutrition Advisor Karen Collins in a webinar titled, Lifestyle Medicine and Cancer: Helping Patients Reduce Their Risk, for which more than 1,500 lifestyle medicine professionals registered. -The Society of Behavioral Medicine (SBM) featured AICR's Senior Nutrition Adviser Karen Collins in February 2020 in an oncology-oriented Twitter chat that generated nearly 1.3 million organic impressions in social media. -AICR built new connections with hospitals and community-based health professionals and cancer centers to enhance awareness of AICR and promote the use of AICR's resources for their patients, including Cancer Support Center Los Angeles(CSC-LA), George Washington University Cancer Center(GWUCC), National Association for Chronic Disease Directors(NACCD), MD Anderson Cancer Center, Loma Linda University, University of Rochester's Center for Community Health & Prevention and the Perlmutter Cancer Center at NYU Langone Health Media Programs and Press Releases In FY20, AICR distributed 4 press releases to its media contacts and conducted 3 radio media tours related to new research, hot topics in the news, COVID-19 and the Dietary Guidelines Advisory Committee report. Our press releases, in conjunction with numerous media requests, earned AICR over 2,200 media hits and reached over 2.2 billion people. AICR was recognized as a gold award recipient of the 2020 MarCom Award in the Radio Campaign category. This award was in recognition of our radio media tours that AICR has done focused on cancer prevention. AICR's research was covered in a range of online media outlets and several TV and radio stations. Leading media outlets included: Forbes, CNN, CBS, ABC, NBC, Associated Press, Newsweek, Washington Post, New York Times, Wall Street Journal, NBC Today Show, Chicago Tribune, USA Today, Business Insider, Medscape, WebMD, Newsmax Health, HealthDay, MSN Health, Yahoo News and Reader's Digest. |
| Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 11b | The 990 form is prepared and reviewed in detail by key staff in the AICR accounting department. The 990 form is then reviewed by AICR executive management, RSM tax and the law firm Steptoe & Johnson. RSM tax and Steptoe & Johnson both conduct detailed reviews of the 990 form. Once the 990 form and accompanying schedules are in final draft form, the AICR board of directors are asked to review and provide feedback prior to the filing. |
| Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 12c | The Institute's Board of Directors has a conflict of interest policy in effect. A copy of the policy is provided to each director, officer and staff member of AICR who is presently serving in a capacity where a conflict of interest could arise. The policy is reviewed annually. If the board determines that changes do not need to be made, the policy is reaffirmed. New directors, officers, and staff members are advised of the policy in effect upon taking office or upon the start of employment, as the case may be. Since fiscal year 2010, directors, officers, executives, and senior level management staff have been required to sign a "declaration of lack of conflict of interest." The policy provides that in the event of a conflict of interest relevant to a matter requiring action by the board, the person shall call it to the attention of the board (or committee of the board, as the case may be), and such person shall not vote on the matter. The person having a conflict of interest shall provide the board (or committee of the board, as the case may be), with any and all relevant information, and shall retire from the room in which the board (or committee of the board, as the case may be) is meeting concerning such matter, and shall not participate in the final deliberation or decision regarding the matter under consideration. The minutes of the meeting of the board (or committee of the board, as the case may be) shall reflect that the conflict of interest was disclosed and that the interested person was not present during the final discussion of such matter or vote and did not vote on such matter. When there is a doubt as to whether a conflict of interest exists, the matter shall be resolved by vote of the board of directors (or committee of the board, as the case may be), excluding the interested person. |
| Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 15 | The compensation committee, through a resolution of the AICR board of directors, is responsible for setting the compensation of the principle officers. This committee conducts an annual review of performance at the end of each calendar year against the goals and objectives established in the yearly budgets, the yearly operation plan and the long-term strategic plans. Information utilized in determining compensation adjustments for this reporting period include: 1) Report from the executive team for the calendar year; 2) Fiscal year performance and effectiveness assessment report; 3) HRA-NCA compensation survey; 4) American Society of Association Executives Association compensation and benefits report; 5) Guidestar compensation report 5) Nonprofit times nonprofit salary and benefits report. After reviewing compensation studies and other industry information, compensation is determined and awarded. Increases are consistent with compensation paid by organizations similar to AICR having comparable responsibility and duties. Increases are documented and a memo is drafted from the compensation committee to the senior vice president of finance, human resource file and to the executives receiving the review including the instructions and details for the compensation changes. Principal officer or senior management received a 3% salary increase in FY2020. |
| Form 990, Part VI, Section C, line 19 | All governing documents and financial statements are available to the public upon request for the same period of disclosure as set forth in Section 6104(d). |
