NSSLHA is required to report unrelated business income to the Internal Revenue Service. NSSLHA did not have any material unrelated business income tax expense for the years ended December 31, 2014. NSSLHA recognizes or derecognizes tax positions on a "more likely than not" threshold. This applies to positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. NSSLHA does not believe it has any material uncertain tax positions. Accordingly, no provision for income taxes has been made in the accompanying financial statements. NSSLHA follows the accounting guidance that creates a single model to address uncertainty in tax positions and clarifies accounting for income taxes by prescribing the minimum recognition threshold a tax position is required to meet before being recognized in its financial statements. Under the requirements of this guidance, organizations could now be required to record an obligation as the result of tax positions they have historically taken on various tax exposure items. NSSLHA is not required to record such an obligation. true convention 46 9890 cost Registration Procedure for Monitoring the Use of Grant Funds Schedule I, Part I, Line 2 To ensure that grant funds are used appropriately and not otherwise diverted from intended use, grantees are required to provide written reports on the deliverables of the grants they receive. Grantees receive 50% of the grant funds prior to the grant commencement. At the completion of the grant, the grantee submits a final grant report to the National Office. After the National Office approves the final grant report, the grantee is paid the remaining 50% balance of the grant funds. false false false false false false false false false Arlene A Pietranton PhD Treasurer 0 318020 0 0 81810 0 143785 0 29112 0 572727 0 0 Chuck Cochran Secretary 0 256107 0 0 0 16770 0 30394 0 31521 0 334792 0 0 ORGANIZATION'S MISSION FORM 990, Part III, Line 1 TO ENCOURAGE PROFESSIONAL INTEREST AMONG COLLEGE AND UNIVERSITY STUDENTS IN THE STUDY OF NORMAL AND DISORDERED HUMAN COMMUNICATION; TO ASSIST COLLEGE AND UNIVERSITY DEPARTMENTS AND LOCAL ORGANIZATIONS INTERESTED IN SPEECH, HEARING, AND LANGUAGE BEHAVIOR AND DISORDERS; TO PROVIDE CONTINUITY TO THE DISSEMINATION OF PROFESSIONAL INFORMATION; TO PROVIDE A VEHICLE FOR STUDENT REPRESENTATION IN MATTERS OF PROFESSIONAL CONCERN.

CONFLICT OF INTEREST POLICY MONITORING & ENFORCEMENT Form 990, Part VI, Line 12c The conflict of interest policy states that no member of the NSSHLA Council of Regional Councilors, or any of its Committees, shall derive any personal profit or gain, directly or indirectly, by reason of his or her participation with the NSSLHA Council. Each individual shall disclose to the association any personal interest that he or she may have in any matter pending before the NSSLHA Council and shall refrain from participation in any decision on such matter. At the fall NSSLHA Executive Council meeting, the Council receives and reviews the association's conflict of interest statement. At that time, the policy is reviewed in detail, and any potential conflicts that may arise are discussed. Individual councilors are advised to recuse themselves from voting on NSSLHA grants if the submission is from the chapter where they are currently a student. Councilors are also prohibited from engaging in any regional or personal exchanges with individuals or companies that are sponsors of the national organization. Any violations of the conflict of interest policy will be overseen by the NSSLHA executive committee and handled on a case-by-case basis. The executive committee will decide the appropriate course of action, communication and resolution in these matters. Process for Determining Compensation Form 990, Part VI, Line 15 In 2014, ASHA and National Student Speech Language Hearing Association (NSSLHA) were consolidated as a result of the change in their relationship as outlined in NSSLHAs bylaws. As such, ASHA is responsible for determining reasonable compensation for NSSLHA's officers and key employees. ASHA officials use their professional discretion to determine compensation amounts for NSSLHA based on the reasonableness standards utilized for determining compensation for its own officers and key employees. NSSLHA does not compensate any ASHA individuals.
