THE ABOVE DATA IS THEN PRESENTED FOR COMPILATION TO THE AGENCY'S OUTSIDE CPA. PRIOR TO FILING THE PREPARED FORM 990, THE FORM IS REVIEWED BY THE ABOVE LISTED PARTIES AND ALSO BY THE AUDIT COMMITTEE. ONCE THE FORM IS APPROVED BY THE ABOVE PARTIES, THE FULL BOARD RECEIVES A COPY OF THE FORM 990 PRIOR TO FILING WITH THE IRS. FORM 990, PART VI, SECTION B, LINE 12C THE ORGANIZATION ANNUALLY RECEIVES A SIGNED CONFLICT OF INTEREST DISCLOSURE STATEMENT FROM EACH ACTIVE BOARD MEMBER. THE DISCLOSURES ARE REVIEWED, AND IF NECESSARY, ARE FURTHER DISCUSSED UNTIL A DETERMINATION IS MADE AS TO WHETHER A CONFLICT OF INTEREST EXISTS. THE ORGANIZATION WILL TAKE APPROPRIATE ACTION, DEPENDENT ON THE OUTCOME OF THE ABOVE REFERENCED DISCUSSION. FORM 990, PART VI, SECTION B, LINE 15 THE BOARD COMPENSATION COMMITTEE REVIEWS AND APPROVES THE COMPENSATION OF THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR TO ASSURE THAT IT IS JUST AND REASONABLE. REVIEW AND APPROVAL OCCUR INDEPENDENTLY, WITHOUT THE PARTICIPATION OF THE INTERESTED PERSON. THE COMMITTEE USES COMPARABILITY DATA FROM SIMILAR ORGANIZATIONS' 990S, COMPENSATION STUDIES, AND OTHER RELEVANT MARKET DATA DURING THE REVIEW. THIS REVIEW AND APPROVAL OCCURS INITIALLY UPON THE HIRING OF THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR, WHENEVER THE TERM OF EMPLOYMENT IS RENEWED OR EXTENDED, AND WHENEVER COMPENSATION IS MODIFIED. SEPARATE REVIEW AND APPROVAL IS NOT REQUIRED IF A MODIFICATION OF COMPENSATION EXTENDS TO SUBSTANTIALLY ALL EMPLOYEES. APPROVAL OF THE CHIEF FINANCIAL OFFICER'S INITIAL COMPENSATION OFFER USES THE SAME PROCESS. SUBSEQUENT INCREASES IN COMPENSATION, WHICH ARE IN LINE WITH OTHER STAFF INCREASES, ARE AT THE DISCRETION OF THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR. FORM 990, PART VI, SECTION C, LINE 19 THE ORGANIZATION MAKES ITS GOVERNING DOCUMENTS AND FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AVAILABLE TO THE PUBLIC UPON REQUEST. IN ADDITION, THE AUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND FORM 990 ARE POSTED ON THE ORGANIZATION'S WEBSITE.
