        <ReturnReference>Schedule I, Part I, Line 2</ReturnReference>
        <Explanation>The NDHC grant program is limited to nonprofit organizations; for-profit businesses and individuals are ineligible for grants. All grant applicants are required to submit a written application describing the proposed project in detail along with a budget which conforms to NDHC guidelines. Successful applicants sign a written grant agreement and submit program evaluation reports and a final expenditure report to the NDHC at the end of the project. Larger grantee organizations are subject to the audit requirements of OMB Circular A-133; any findings related to the expenditure of NDHC funds are required to be reported to the NDHC office along with a plan of corrective action.</Explanation>

        <Explanation>The form 990 and associated schedules were prepared by the Associate Director and reviewed and signed by the Executive Director. The NDHC board was emailed a copy of the form 990 and the associated schedules before the return was filed with the IRS.</Explanation>

        <ReturnReference>Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 12c</ReturnReference>
        <Explanation>At each meeting of the NDHC board of directors, actual and potential conflicts of interest are discussed and ruled on by the Chair before discussion and voting on grant applications takes place. Any board members deemed to have a conflict of interest are excused from the meeting during the discussion and abstain from voting on the relevent grant application. The Chair also monitors the outside activities of the Executive Director to ensure that no actual or potential conflicts of interest are taking place.
