Launched in February 2010, the NPA Natural Standard is a set of guidelines that dictate whether a product can be deemed truly "natural." The standard encompasses home care products such as household cleaners, laundry detergents, and concentrated and ready to use hard-surface cleaners. Under the program, products certified under the NPA Natural Home Care Standard can bear the NPA Natural Seal. See Schedule O for continuation GMP Certification: NPA has always taken a leadership role in promoting quality standards and has developed proactive certification programs for that purpose. NPA was the first organization to offer a third-party GMP certification program for the manufacturing of dietary supplements and dietary ingredients. NPA established its GMP standards for dietary supplements in 1999 and updated the standard in 2000. At the time of publication, these GMP standards represented the industry's best practices and served as the basis of the NPA GMP Certification Program.See Schedule O for continuation TruLabel: The TruLabel Program is a dietary supplement label registration and random-testing program adopted by NPA in 1990 and made a requirement for supplier membership in 1995. This internal oversight program was designed to create a high level of confidence with retailers and consumers that products sold in the marketplace are accurately labeled; establish an ongoing self-regulatory process within the industry; demonstrate industry maturity to legislators; and provide a comprehensive industry product database. See Schedule O for continuation NPA Membership: Natural Suppliers and Retailers are able to join the Natural Products Association to join in the advocacy efforts as well as the work to protect and promote natural standards. 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 1 17 0 1 11 1 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 X 20 20 0 0 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 0 1 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 0 0 CA DC X The Organization 8009666632 440 1st St NW No 520 Washington DC 20001 Mark LeDoux Acting President 0.30 0.10 X X 0 0 0 Carolyn Behrman Director 0.30 0.00 X 0 0 0 Donnie Caffery Director 0.30 0.00 X 0 0 0 Claudia David-Roscoe Director 0.30 0.00 X 0 0 0 Jane Drinkwalter Director 0.30 0.10 X 0 0 0 Frank Jaksch Director 0.30 0.00 X 0 0 0 Harvey Kamil Director 0.30 0.00 X 0 0 0 Emil Mahler Director 0.30 0.00 X 0 0 0 Loraine Hoffman Director 0.30 0.00 X 0 0 0 Angie O'Pry Blades Director 0.30 0.00 X 0 0 0 Howard Pollack Director 0.30 0.00 X 0 0 0 Jim Emme Director 0.30 0.00 X 0 0 0 Dave Sullivan Director 0.30 0.00 X 0 0 0 Joe Weiss Director 0.30 0.00 X 0 0 0 Pete Zambetti Director 0.30 0.00 X 0 0 0 Mike Berdall Director 0.30 0.00 X 0 0 0 Adam Gordman Director 0.30 0.00 X 0 0 0 Francos Dremen Director 0.30 0.00 X 0 0 0 Carrol Wells Director 0.30 0.00 X 0 0 0 Mark Petoncjak Director 0.30 0.00 X 0 0 0 Daniel Fabricant PhD Executive Director and CEO 40.00 0.10 X 365000 0 11360 Corey Hilmas MD PhD SVP Scientific & Regulatory Affairs 40.00 4.00 X 210948 0 4192 Michael Kelley Director, Government Affairs 40.00 0.00 X 110982 0 894 686930 0 16446 3 0 1 0 Porzio Bromberg & Newman PC 1200 New Hampshire Ave NW 710 Washington DC 20036 Legal Services 180452 HDMK 1000 Vermont Ave NW Washington DC 20005 Consulting Services 140774 Sidley Austin LLP 1501 K Street NW 600 Washington DC 20005 Consulting Services 124000 TATE & TRYON 2021 L St NW 400 Washington DC 20036 Accounting Services 110793 4 81717 81717 Membership Dues 900099 1559263 1559263 License/Registration Fees 900099 166944 166944 Education Income 900099 41291 41291 Webcast Income 900099 449 449 1767947 129615 129615 207947 207947 1635174 1600000 1618002 1789666 17172 -189666 -172494 -172494 Other revenue 900099 36585 36585 36585 2051317 1804532 0 165068 7500 376360 655729 11260 82735 62101 1086901 104509 401211 27082 379667 48539 251577 56988 182054 113414 88307 54737 18939 PAC administrative 22825 Dues & Subscriptions 21955 Taxes and licenses 14304 Membership Initiative 12146 4080840 45871 333350 11784 127563 36009 26694 349904 277513 1744461 72391 3270772 3272993 59364 59364 5168261 3892355 138218 683652 714229 803163 3000 16099 855447 1502914 X 4312814 2389441 4312814 2389441 5168261 3892355 -2029523 82763 23387 0 X 0 0 0 Natural Products Association Political Action Committee 440 1st St NW Ste 520 Washington DC 20001 0 21050 0 0 0 1640427 602936 602936 621293 -18357 349904 277513 72391 72391 Deferred rent liability 16099 16099 0 Utah Families Foundation 9160 South 300 West Sandy UT 84070 870509416 501(c)(3) 7500 0 N/A N/A Program support 1 0 X X X X 0 0 0 Daniel Fabricant PhD Executive Director and CEO 365000 0 0 0 0 0 4160 0 7200 0 376360 0 0 0 Corey Hilmas MD PhD SVP Scientific & Regulatory Affairs 210948 0 0 0 0 0 4192 0 0 0 215140 0 0 0 Form 990, Part I, Line 1, Description of Organization Mission: As the leading voice of the natural products industry, the Natural Products Association's mission is to advocate for the rights of consumers to have access to products that will maintain and improve their health, and for the rights of retailers and suppliers to sell these products. The Natural Products Association strives to achieve a broader, more accessible marketplace for natural products that will improve the quality of life for consumers worldwide. Form 990, Part III, Line 4a, Natural Seal Certification: (continued) Until the NPA standard, there was no definition of the term "natural" used by the home care industry. With the launch of the NPA Natural Standard and Certification for Home Care Products, consumers can look for the easily identifiable seal to discern which home care products are truly natural. Form 990, Part III, Line 4b, GMP Certification: (continued) In June 2007, the FDA published the final GMP regulation specific to dietary supplements (21 CFR 111). In order to keep the NPA GMP Certification Program relevant and reflect the highest level of industry good manufacturing practices, the NPA GMP Standard has been revised to include all of the FDA GMP requirements of 21 CFR Part 111 and retains certain requirements from the 2000 version of the NPA GMP Standard that exceed requirements of the FDA GMPs, or reflect best industry practices, and/or are necessary for the evaluation of compliance to the NPA GMP standard. NPA GMP Certification is awarded to companies that meet a high level of compliance to the NPA GMP Standard as verified through comprehensive third-party inspections of facilities and GMP-related documentation. Form 990, Part III, Line 4c, TruLabel: (continued) The TruLabel program is a valuable resource to NPA as we use information from the database to defend the industry when elected officials and regulatory agencies have questions and/or make incorrect statements about products. The random testing has been beneficial to the industry also as the test results have been used to backup concerns about products or ingredients in the marketplace.
