| Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 11b | The Organization's Treasurer and Director of Finance are responsible for overseeing the preparation of IRS Form 990 (990). The 990 and its supporting schedules were prepared by the public accounting firm, Tonneson + Company, Inc. (Tonneson), responsible for auditing the Organization's financial statements. Tonneson's work was based on information provided to them during the course of the audit by the Organization's accounting department, plus additional work requested specific to the 990. The Board Treasurer, Director of Finance, Board President and Executive Director performed a detailed review of the completed 990 and reported the results of its review to the Board of Trustees. The Board of Trustees then voted to approve the Form 990. Each member of the Organization's Board of Trustees received a copy of the 990 prior to filing the form with the IRS. |
| Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 12c | The Board of Trustees requires regular annual statements from trustees, officers, employees, and individuals serving on Board committees, and other designated individuals, which will require such individuals to disclose any existing or potential conflict of interest and to inform the Board of Trustees in the event a potential conflict of interest may arise. The Board of Trustees may also provide for such corrective action as it deems appropriate by reason of a failure to disclose such conflict of interest, which may include removal from a position or office. Disclosure forms shall be updated annually or sooner if changed circumstances require disclosure. All persons subject to this policy are expected to update their Conflict of Interest Disclosure Statement at any time during the year that the information requested on the form changes. The administration and maintenance of the Conflict of Interest Disclosure Statement shall be the responsibility of the President/Chair of the Board of Trustees, or his/her designee. |
| Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 15 | The Chair and Vice-Chair of the Board of Trustees, who are not employees of the Organization or related to any employees of the Organization, meet annually to review the Executive Director's compensation. As part of their review, the Chair and Vice-Chair of the Board of Trustees evaluate various criteria including, but not limited to, the Organization's goals and objectives, the Executive Director's performance, and comparative third-party compensation data. |
| Form 990, Part VI, Section C, line 19 | The Organization's governing documents, conflict of interest policy, financial statements and Form 990 are immediately made available to the public by calling the organization's office, walking into the organization's office or mailing in a request to the organization. Also, the Form 990 and financial statements are available through the Massachusetts Attoney General's office/website and Guidestar. |
